Best of Uppsala Municipality
Uppsala kommun Essentials
Uppsala kommun serves as a cornerstone of Swedish history, anchored by the 6th-century royal burial mounds of Gamla Uppsala and Scandinavia's oldest university, founded in 1477. The area features architectural landmarks like the 16th-century Uppsala Castle and the remarkably preserved Baroque Skokloster Castle. Scientific heritage is central here, preserved at the Linnaeus Garden and Hammarby, the former homes of botanist Carl Linnaeus. Museums like Gustavianum and the Museum of Evolution house significant archaeological and natural history collections, while the Carolina Rediviva library displays the 6th-century Silver Bible.
