The location of Kristianstad permitted the building of a town that would be an unassailable fortress. Split in two by a canal, the smaller portion became the administrative center and the larger was set aside as the market and a center for trade and craftsmen. The most notable building is the Church of the Holy Trinity, built by King Christian IV in the early 17th century. The countryside around Kristianstad is rich in history as well, mounds, cairns and menhirs bear witness to prehistoric populations and many of the almost fifty churches in the area date back to the 12th century. Walking is the best way to see the city but a rental car is suggested to visit sites outside the city. Kristianstad's Vattenrike is an Eco-museum that extends for 35 kilometers along the Helge River.
