Malmö and Gothenburg
Sweden’s coastal cities
Two coastal cities, two distinct characters. In Malmö, contemporary architecture meets continental ease just across the bridge from Copenhagen. In Gothenburg, maritime history and a strong design tradition shape a city with a warm, laid-back rhythm.

Malmö – relaxed city life
In the south, Malmö is a gateway between Sweden and Denmark, connected to Copenhagen by the Öresund Bridge. The city combines contemporary architecture, vibrant food culture and a relaxed urban atmosphere. Explore the striking Turning Torso, wander through the historic streets of Gamla Väster, or experience a traditional sea-bathing ritual at Kallbadhuset, set over the open waters of the Øresund.
