Sigtuna is considered to be Sweden's oldest town. It is said to have been founded around the year 970. But that is not why tourists come here. Today's Sigtuna attracts visitors with its idyllic town center, wooden houses, souvenir shops, restaurants and many cafés. Most of the shops and cafés are located in the pedestrian zone along the small main street, Stora gatan. The town also has Sweden's smallest town hall (on Stora torget) and a museum dedicated to the history of Sigtuna.
