Copyright: Glasriket ABHyttsill
Hyttsill, the 'hot shop herring, is an old tradition in the Kingdom of Crystal that dates back to when the glassworks also served as the community meeting place. In the evenings, visitors are treated to food cooked in the cooling ovens, drinks, entertainment, and master-level glassblowing. Today, hyttsill is served to the public in Kosta, Målerås and in Bergdalahyttan for pre-booked groups, primarily in the summer and around Christmas, but other scattered dates are also available. Group bookings are accepted throughout the year.
