Rosengård

The district spans 332 hectares in central Malmö, containing large housing complexes constructed in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

Rosengård emerged in 1972 as part of Sweden's Million Programme, a national initiative to construct one million residences within a decade.

With 86 percent of inhabitants from international backgrounds by 2008, the district houses the Malmö Mosque and Västra Skrävlinge Church.

The neighborhood maintains strong transportation connections to central Malmö through an extensive network of public transit routes and bicycle paths.

Soccer star Zlatan Ibrahimović grew up in this district, which later became the filming location for the Netflix series Young Wallander.
