In the nature reserve many movies have been recorded over the years. The most famous movie scene is when death is playing chess against the knight on the beachmill in Ingemar Bergman's "Seventh Seal". In year 2017, Hovs halls were awarded the "Treasures of European Film Culture" venues with special cultural significance for the European film.
