The harbour

Smygehuk is a harbour and fishing village near Trelleborg in Skåne, Sweden. It's most famous for being the southernmost point of Sweden and the Scandinavian Peninsula (55° 20' N).

A statue of a woman stands in the harbour. It's made by artist Axel Ebbe, and named Famntaget (the embrace). The model for the statue is said to be Birgit Holmquist, grandmother to actress Uma Thurman.
