Helsingborg

Although Helsingborg is a small city, it has a big heart and a lot to offer, including a cosy atmosphere and beautiful surrounding nature.

Take a stroll along the promenade in "Norra Hamnen", an experience for those who like to eat well and go shopping, while preserving a beautiful view over the Sound to the west. Helsingborg has about 500 shops, which are spread all over the city, but with most shops located in Kullagatan, Bruksgatan, Dronninggatan, Järnvägsgatan and Storgatan. "Väla Centrum" is the largest shopping centre in southern Sweden and is located about 6 km from the centre of Helsingborg.

As for culture, you might want to start in the "Dunkers Kulturhus", which hosts exciting and changing exhibitions, as well as various galleries and an international music scene.

´Fredriksdal´ is a large open-air museum with everything that goes with it, farmhouses, manor houses and town quarters and there is also a large park with various livestock and a very special rose garden. And don't forget to visit the watchtower, 'Kärnan', which has watched over Helsingborg for more than 700 years and is also the city's landmark. From ´Kärnan´ there is also an incredible view over the Øresund all the way to Helsingør, which is 4 km away, on the other side of the Sound. A cheap mini break or a cheap weekend break abroad is just around the corner with Risskov!

Sofiero Castle

In 1866, under Crown Prince Oscar and his wife Sophia, the summer palace Sophie-ro was built. It is located directly by the sea just a few kilometres north of Helsingborg. Sofiero is perhaps best known for its collection of rhododendrons, and this is primarily what more than 100,000 visitors come to experience each year.
