Nilssonsberg, Residential district in Linné area, Gothenburg, Sweden.

Nilssonsberg is a residential neighborhood in the Linné area of Gothenburg made up of apartment buildings arranged around shared green courtyards and planted common areas. The structures have clean, functional design with ground-level shops and parks nearby that serve everyday needs.

The neighborhood was built in 1977 as a planned residential project reflecting how Scandinavia approached housing design in that era. The development was part of Gothenburg's efforts to create housing for its growing population during that decade.

The name comes from gardener Åke Nilsson (1813–1877), who moved to the foot of Risåsen in 1860; the hill was earlier called Spekeberget or Lilla Ryssåsen and was renamed Nilssonsberg in the late 1860s. His meadow, Nilssons äng, was sold to the city in 1885 for 112,000 kronor and became Skanstorget in 1888. The area was cleared in the late 1960s and rebuilt mainly in yellow brick.

The area is easy to reach with several bus stops and tram stations within a short walk, offering direct routes to central Gothenburg. Ground-level shops and cafes in the buildings make it practical to handle daily errands without traveling far.

The name Nilssonsberg comes from gardener Åke Nilsson (1813–1877), who moved to the foot of Risåsen in 1860. In 1852 he bought the estate Östra Haga 48–51, later called Nilssons äng, from distiller Alfred Johan Nikolaus Setterborg. The hill itself was earlier called Spekeberget or Lilla Ryssåsen and was renamed Nilssonsberg in the late 1860s.
