Sölvesborg is a town in Blekinge, Sweden, with historical roots in the Middle Ages, evidenced by the Nikolaikirche (c. 1300) and a medieval street layout in the city center. The area has been inhabited for 8000 years, as shown by the Ljungaviken dwelling, and includes Iron Age remains and the 6th-century Stentoften rune stone. In the mid-19th century, Sölvesborg prospered as a distillery center. Today, it's a popular summer tourist destination due to its attractive surroundings and festivals like Killebom (with a medieval market) and the Sweden Rock Festival.
