This one is about the location of the grave of the great Viking god Odin \u2013 namely, that it is on the island of Osmussaar. In fact, this is how the island got its name \u2013 in Swedish, the island\u2019s name is Odensholm.  <br \/>As far as we know, no one has met Odin\u2019s spirit there, but Osmussaar still casts an inexplicable spell over new arrivals.<br \/>They say that many are unable to leave Osmussaar without outside help. Therefore, it is a good idea to go with friends. Hopefully, at least one of them must return to the mainland urgently after some time and is persuasive enough to not go alone.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5d7af1c e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\"

islands, then you should visit Vormsi straight away. Vormsi is also a place of legends. According to one of them, Vormsi (Orms\u00f6 in Swedish) was named after an Icelandic Viking called Orm (\u2018snake\u2019).<\/p>\n<p>However, before you reach the Rohuk\u00fcla Harbour, you will experience a lot more romance if you stop by the Ungru castle, which was never completed.<br \/>Legend says that Count Ungern-Sternberg fell in love with a daughter of the lord of the Merseburg castle, who had pledged to spend her entire life there. The count promised to build a castle that was an exact copy, and the lord\u2019s daughter agreed. The construction of the castle was halted when the count\u2019s beloved suddenly fell ill and passed away.  <br \/>The walls of Ungru castle still stand firm, just like true love.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c538409 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"c538409\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8d91f53 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"8d91f53\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-aa697c2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"aa697c2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>When going to Vormsi, be prepared, because this small island might become the love of your life.<br \/>Even if you have travelled all corners of Vormsi several times, something will always bring you back.
