Mitt barndomshem Näs

Astrid Lindgren's childhood home is still on the farm Näs in Vimmerby. There she grew up, and there she returned regularly in her life. Experiences and memories from there were often the starting point when she created her stories and characters. In 1987, she left the house to her nieces. Still a little later, she handed them a stack of typewritten pages: "Now I'm finally going to start something that I've been thinking about for a long time..." Then Astrid Lindgren talks about the "real" Bullerbyn, interiors, people, places and objects "to guide for Gunvor, Barbro and Eivor, who after my death have no one to ask." Watercolor paintings and a wealth of photographic material follow the author's own text.
