Sundsvall, Regional administrative center in Medelpad, Sweden

Sundsvall extends across valleys and hills reaching 241 meters above sea level, flanked by the Ljungan and Indalsälven rivers in northern Sweden.

Following the devastating fire of 1888, Sundsvall underwent a complete reconstruction in stone, transforming from wooden structures into a city of substantial buildings.

The Kulturmagasinet complex houses both the city library and Sundsvall Museum, presenting exhibitions that detail the regional heritage and artistic developments.

The city connects to Stockholm through regular flights under one hour, while trains and buses provide extensive service throughout the surrounding Medelpad region.

The St. Olavsleden pilgrimage trail begins in Sundsvall and continues through varied terrain to Trondheim, Norway, spanning multiple historical sites and landscapes.
