Astrid Lindgren's Småland: Vimmerby to Katthult
Astrid Lindgren's Pippi, Emil and the children of Bullerbyn trace back to Näs and Sevedstorp near Vimmerby, to the Gibberyd farm that played Katthult, and to Mariannelund, where Emil heads for the doctor.
The route runs from the author's birthplace through the village that served as the model for Bullerbyn to the film farm and the theme park. Katthult and Bullerbyn are story places; the pins mark their real stand-ins.

Astrid Lindgren was born on 14 November 1907 and grew up at Näs, near Vimmerby. The garden by the old vicarage holds an elm that is the model for the lemonade tree in the Pippi Longstocking stories, where Pippi lives in Villa Villekulla. Today Näs is a cultural centre with a visitor pavilion, and the ground floor of her childhood home looks as it did when she was a girl.
Para el visitante: Astrid Lindgrens Näs is open to visitors in Vimmerby; check the official site for hours and tours.

Bullerbyn has three farms, Norrgården, Sörgården and Mellangården, and the children live in three houses side by side. The real model is the village of Sevedstorp, where Lindgren's father grew up; his stories about that childhood underlie many of her tales. The village was also a filming location in 1986 and 1987. The Bullerbyn films are set between 1928 and 1929.

Emil lives at Katthult farm in Lönneberga parish. His pranks so often anger his father that he has to lock himself in the carpentry shed. The 1970s Emil films were shot at the lower farm in the village of Gibberyd, near Rumskulla. The name Katthult has been the farm's official address since the early 2000s.

In the first Emil film, set around 1900, Emil sings the "Oppochner" song on his way to the doctor in Mariannelund. The town is prominently featured in several films based on Lindgren's works, especially the Emil series. It is also home to Filmbyn Småland, a film museum and theme park dedicated to her films.
