Gothenburg - a small city with the big feel

by Joacim - last update: Oct 26, 2007

Gothenburg a beautiful city

Kålle with the cod
Gothenburg, or Göteborg as the Swedish name is, is known in Sweden as the happy town. Pleasant people, good restaurants and a fine nightlife. During the summer it is beautiful with the light, the warmth and all the cafés with their outdoor tables. Unfortunately during the winter the weather is not so nice with a lot of wind, rain and sometimes snow.

History of Gothenburg

Gothenburg was founded in 1621 by the King Gustav II Adolf but it has been an important city long before that. It has been in the hands of both Denmark and Norway but in the treaty of Roskilde in 1658 it was handed over again to Sweden and has been in Swedish hands ever since.

 Many years ago, I got lost trying to find my way out to Boras. The Police then gave me an escort out of Goteborg !
