Värmlands nation, Student association house in Uppsala, Sweden

Värmlands nation is a large brick building in Uppsala designed by architect Ragnar Östberg that serves as a gathering hub for students. Inside you will find a medieval cellar pub, study areas, a library, and multiple rooms for social events and meetings.

This nation was founded in 1660 as a meeting place for students arriving from the Värmland and Dalsland regions of Sweden. Over the centuries it became a central institution for both academic and social life among the student body.

The nation's name comes from Värmland, the province whose students it gathered; its catchment area corresponds to Karlstad diocese, covering Värmland and Dalsland, though formal ties are no longer required. Members take part in photography, sports, choir and theater groups, and the house contains a library for borrowing fiction and course literature.

The location is easy to reach from Uppsala University and sees visitors throughout the day, with the most activity happening in the evenings. Student members can find housing options in nearby buildings including corridor rooms at Phyllebo and apartments near Ekonomikum park.

The house was built on the site of a plot bought in 1874, but the project stalled for decades: Jonas Bjurzon donated 30,000 kronor in 1883 for a stone nation house, and construction only began in spring 1929. Anders Diös was the builder, and King Gustav V inaugurated the building on 11 October 1930.
