The thick, diseased cobblestones have been piled up in a clumsy circle and in the middle are burned remains of newspapers and plastic containers. Next to it, a grid is balanced on a metal cube and, along the facade of a completely scribbled house, chairs are carefully placed.
In the gravel and garbage piles are empty tablet maps, glass blisters, self-laminated barrels, and lots of broken glass. In several places, the word “consulate” is written in spray paint.
– It is used as an overnight stay. There are people here since Systembolaget was opened and it has become more and more. They then linger and get louder and more affected as the day progresses, says Martin Fredholm.
He sits on the board of directors of the nearby Klippan Landlord-Tenant Association and also of the Trygg i Klippan group, which represents several of the area’s landlord-tenant associations.

Feeling insecure
The surrounding residents have grown weary of the insecurity, something Göteborg Direkt was the first to say, which they also believe has escalated over the past year.
– Creates insecurity. Our children dare not go through here. Those who are here become, as people become when affected, a little distant, says Martin Fredholm, explaining that they have had to call the police several times or the police have appeared on their own initiative.
Behind the colorful plywood boards are the remains of why Kungsladugård is so named. The rest of the building is located in the well-kept Klippan cultural reserve, reminiscent of when life in that part of the harbor was completely different. In addition to the royal granary in Älvsborg, there have also been sugar mills, customs and a brewery.
But not only the outer surface of, according to the municipality, “buildings of cultural and historical value” has seen better days, but also inside – which can be reached through a broken hatch on each long side – is appreciated a deterioration. The upper floor seems to collapse at any second and the lower floor is covered with a sea of old clothes, chairs, construction materials, blankets and packaging. All accompanied by a slight smell of urine.

“Sad that it has expired”
– An alternative is to keep the building and make it in order. But something must be done, it cannot be as it is now. It’s sad that it has deteriorated, says Martin Fredholm, adding that much of the old house that he wants to preserve is no longer there.
He adds:
– It would have been good for the landowner to take over his land and house, which they did not do.
It was in 2003 that the red barn caught fire, leaving only a small corner of a red painted wooden building. Klippan kulturfastigheter AB is currently the owner of the site.
– We do not want anything better than to start building, but the work has been delayed for various reasons, says manager Eva Vasilis directly to Gothenburg.
GP has requested Klippan kulturfastigheter, but so far without success.
