Norrköpings kommun Essentials

Explore the industrial heart of Sweden in Norrköping, where the Motala ström river powers historic textile mills like the iconic Strykjärnet, now housing the Museum of Work. The city’s architectural landscape features the Baroque-style Sankt Olai church and the 17th-century Hedvigs kyrka. Beyond the urban center, the 17th-century Löfstad Palace offers a glimpse into noble life, while the ruins of Johannisborg fortification date back to the early 1600s. Cultural landmarks include the Norrköping Museum of Art and the diverse species at Kolmården Tropicarium.
