Byholma Lumber Storage

The fierce hurricane Gudrun swept over Southern Sweden in January 2005 and caused over 300 000 000 trees to fall in this region, an airbase outside the small town Byholma has been converted to the largest lumber storage in the world, now including 1 000 000 m3 of timber. This will stay at this place until 2010, otherwise the market would be saturated. It is now a popular tourist place with a tourbus going in the summer.
