Örebro, Urban center in central Sweden

Located by Lake Hjälmaren and river Svartån, Örebro extends across an area featuring medieval architecture, modern districts, and natural landscapes.

The settlement received city privileges in 1404, developing from a small medieval trading post to Sweden's sixth largest city by the 19th century.

The Open Art exhibition brings international artists to the city, while Örebro University educates 16,000 students across multiple academic disciplines.

The central station connects to major Swedish railway lines, and the airport situated 10 kilometers southwest provides domestic and international flights.

The Gustavsvik water park, the largest in Nordic countries, attracts over 700,000 visitors annually with its indoor and outdoor swimming facilities.
