Asecs

Asecs is a shopping complex in Jönköping that spans both sides of the E4 motorway, connected by a covered bridge that incorporates retail spaces within its structure. The bridge serves as an integral shopping passage between the two sides, allowing visitors to move between separate commercial areas.

The complex opened in 1987 after the former Småland Artillery Regiment site was converted into a commercial center. This transformation from military to retail use shaped how the location developed from its inception.

The center was known as A6 before taking its current name in 2017, representing a moment of renewal for how local residents think about the space. Shoppers recognize it as a significant meeting point in the region's commercial landscape.

The center offers parking with flexible payment options through the Autopay system, including automatic card registration for frequent visitors. The layout makes it relatively straightforward to move between the different sections of the complex.

Until 2019, a McDonald's restaurant occupied the bridge section with direct views over the E4 motorway traffic. This unusual dining spot gave customers a rare vantage point to watch vehicles passing below while eating.
