UFO-Memorial Ängelholm
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The UFO-Memorial Ängelholm is presumably the only memorial in Europe to be built as remembrance to a UFO landing. It was built in 1963 and it is situated in a forest clearing at Kronoskogen, a suburb of the Swedish town of Ängelholm. The UFO-Memorial Ängelholm memorialises the landing of a UFO, which is said to have taken place on May 18, 1946 and been seen by the Swedish ice hockey player Gösta Carlsson. The memorial consists of a model of the UFO and the landing traces, and is constructed of concrete.
Clas Svahn, chairman of UFO-Sweden, has investigated the case and written a book together with Gösta Carlsson about the incident. According to him there was no convincing evidence that the event ever took place the way Gösta Carlsson described it.[1]
In the encounter Gösta Carlsson claims to have received recipes for natural remedies. Based on this knowledge he started the pharmaceutical companies Cernelle and Allergon which grew to become a success and made him wealthy. He later founded the first professional ice-hockey club in Sweden - Rögle BK.
