Geocache Description:

SWE: I folkmun kallas Musikpaviljongen för "Dansbanan i Tallparken".

Medtag egen penna!

ENG: The music pavillion was colloqially called the dancing place in Tallparken (the pine park). Please bring your own pen.

SWE: 1901 beslöt Badhusbolaget att Öregrund skulle få en egen folkpark. Namnet folkpark ogillades dock så naturparken med den vackra utsikten över Grepen fick istället heta Tallparken. Den nya parken blev snabbt ett populärt mål för Öregrunds badgäster och många festligheter ordnades där. Musikpaviljongen låg ursprungligen i Badhusparken (dvs nära Societetshuset i centarla Öregrund) och flyttades till Tallparken någon gång på tidigt 1900-tal.

ENG: In 1901, in the spa era of Öregrund, the Bathhouse Company decided that Öregrund would get its own people's park. The name People's was dismissed, however, so the nature park with the beautiful view of Grepen (i.e. the part of the sea between the mainland and the large island of Gräsö) was called Tallparken (the Pine Park). The new park quickly became a popular target for Öregrund's bathers and many festivities were held there. The bandstand was originally situated in the spa park, close to Societetshuset in central Öregrund, and was moved to Pine Park sometime in the early 1900's . A Societetshus was a Clubhouse for wealthy summer visitors, particularly in seaside resorts or spas in Sweden.
