Örebro, Urban center in central Sweden
Örebro is a city in central Sweden, part of Örebro Municipality, resting between Lake Hjälmaren and a waterway. Residential areas, parks and older quarters alternate to form a cityscape with green spaces and different building styles.
The settlement received city rights in the early 15th century and grew from a trading post by the water. Over the centuries it expanded into an important hub in the region.
The Open Art exhibition brings international artists to the city, while Örebro University educates 16,000 students across multiple academic disciplines.
The main train station connects the city with other parts of Sweden and makes arrival by rail easy. An airport southwest of the city offers additional connections for travelers.
The Gustavsvik water park, the largest in Nordic countries, attracts over 700,000 visitors annually with its indoor and outdoor swimming facilities.
