City Information
Malmo



Originally a Danish city, Malmö is located in the far south of Sweden, in the Skåne province. This seaside city guarantees something for everyone with a charming blend of Old-Town history and a modern cosmopolitan feel.
For a taste of the city's rich history, visit Malmöhus Castle and experience Scandinavia's oldest surviving Renaissance castle. Once a place of grand balls, the castle is now home to several museums, including an art museum, the City Museum, and an aquarium and zoo.
If you're more interested in a shopping experience, take a walk down Södergatan, the city's main shopping street, running from Stortorget to Gustav Adolf Torg. Along with its excellent shops and boutiques, enjoy great places for food and drink and experience traditional Swedish fika (coffee break).
Malmö has ample travel connections nationally as well as internationally. Fly to either Copenhagen Kastrup or the smaller Malmö Airport for travel by air.
