Kungsstigen
Many visitors come to the rural idyll of Husaby to walk in the footsteps of Olof Skötkonung, to experience history stretching back to the Stone Age and to explore some of the other visitor attractions nearby.
One good way to experience all the sights in Husaby is to follow the Kungsstig (King’s trail), which is around kilometres long.
Along the route you pass sights such as Husaby church, Biskopsborgen (the bishop’s castle) and St Sigfrid’s well. Benches are sited at several points, where you can sit for a while and take in your surroundings. Once you get back from your walk, you can enjoy refreshments at the local heritage centre.

Husaby Church
[edit]Husaby is most known for Husaby Church (Husaby kyrka) a medieval stone church. During the early 11th century, it was a wooden church. A little later, the original church was replaced by the current stone church. The tower was built in the late 11th century and in the early 12th century the stone church. Olof Skötkonung (c. –), the first Christian king of Sweden, is rumoured to have allowed himself to be baptised at a well by the church in possibly by English missionary Saint Sigfrid of Sweden.
Architecturally, Husaby Church is remarkable for its steep walls and high towers, arguably the only Romanesque architecture in Sweden of that kind. The church belonged to a network of royal estates called Uppsala öd. The altarpiece was performed by Flemish sculptor George Baselaque and donated to the church in by Magnus Gabriel De la Gardie (). One of the oldest objects in the church is the baptismal font in sandstone from the early 13th century. [2][3]

Beskrivning
Historiska händelser får ibland justeras samt det finns lärda män som säger att detta är inom det irländska helgonet Brigidas källa som dopet av Olof Skötkonung ägde rum. Den källan ligger väster ifall kyrkan, inom dag igenväxt men vattenförande.
Mycket av historiskt värde finns att titta vid Husaby, förutom Sankt Sigfrids källa så finns kyrkan ifrån talet. Denna stenkyrka ersatte en stavkyrka som tidigare fanns vid platsen. C metoden ger vid handen att kvarlevor från stavkyrkan kan vara ifrån mitten från talet samt stockar inom nuvarande stenkyrka visar för att dessa träd fälldes Husaby var ej landets inledande kyrka dock den inledande Domkyrkan ifall än på grund av en mindre tid då Skara övertog denna roll
Husaby fanns troligen enstaka av Olof Erikssons Kungsgårdar och efter dopet skänkte – skötade (skänkte) denne jorden, alltså hela byn till det nybildade stiftet
