What to do and see in Gamla Staden, Skane County: The Best Sights & Landmarks

June 24, 2021 Frederic Celentano

Blending green parks and sandy beaches with a rich culture, history and modern art, Malmö lets you go your own way — literally. Starting in the bustling commercial centre, it’s just a short walk to picturesque Old Town and Malmöhus Castle. From there, you can easily continue to the modern Western Harbour for a perfect snapshot of the Öresund Bridge and Turning Torso. And since Malmö loves food, drinks and good company, you’re never far from fine dining or a proper Swedish Fika.

Little Square

Reviewed By danielaI6579BU - Baltimore, United States

Charming area that’s paved with natural stones with a nice variety of restaurants and shops. A couple of the restaurants are busy year round (especially in summer) as they have ample outdoor seating.. Nicely decorated with plenty of lights during the holiday season. (Don’t miss the oversized lamp) About 10 minutes walk from Malmo C & easy to find & close to the Stortorget. Great for a drink or meal in the square.

St. Petri (St. Peter's Church)

Reviewed By Thefunkygibbons - Hartley Wintney, United Kingdom

The Church looks very nice from the outside. Inside, it is quite plain, despite its 700 year history, although the side altar at the back has some faded murals, which are more often seen in Italian churches. The main altar is very dramatic and it is possible to walk all the way behind it. Around the church in various paces is plenty of evidence of regular worship and an active role in its local and wider community.

Apoteket Lejonet

Reviewed By Alexander_Kudrin - Samara, Russia

Sweden's oldest pharmacy is housed in a beautiful old building. The original interior has been preserved here. On the second floor there is a nice balcony behind which there are shelves with antique bottles. Very nice ceiling. Definitely worth stopping by and seeing.

Great old buildings with a lot of history. Many of the buildings are still in use today and are functional work spaces. Great square to visit with a few restaurants to pick from.
