Built in 1886, the Södra Vattentornet (South Water Tower) is one of Örebro’s most recognizable landmarks. Located just north of Gustavsvik, the historic tower now stands beside a cozy restaurant where you can stop for a meal and enjoy the unique setting.

The central Stortorget (Great Square) was created after the city fire of 1854, which destroyed large parts of the wooden town of Örebro. In 1880, it was expanded to its current size and complemented by Oskarsparken to the east. At 362 meters, Stortorget is one of the longest squares in Sweden. Due to the gently curving ridge of stone that runs through the center of Örebro, the terrain slopes down to the east.

Henry Allard Park in the center of Örebro was created in 1913 and was formerly called Centralparken. After the death of former Speaker of Parliament Henry Allard in 1996, the park received its current name.

Örebro Castle is situated on an island in the Svartån River. It was originally built, presumably in the mid-14th century, by King Magnus Eriksson as a fortified castle. Around 1600, during the reign of Duke Charles, and from 1604 onwards King Charles IX, it was remodeled into a Renaissance castle in the French style. By this time, it had largely lost its function as a defensive structure. The renovations carried out in the 20th century did not alter the exterior of the castle, but none of the interior rooms remain in their original condition. Since 1764, the Governor of Örebro County has resided in the castle's northwest tower.

Örebro's Town Hall, dating from 1863, is the seat of the city's political leadership and administration. Built from 1859 onwards in the Neo-Gothic style according to the plans of city architect Fridolf Wijnbladh, the Town Hall was so large that it also housed the police station, the savings bank, a bookshop, and the technical school.

Beautiful castle. The old kitchen is interesting.

This medieval castle stands on an island in the Svartån River. Its fortifications were extended during the reign of the House of Vasa. It hosts annual art exhibitions.

Worth seeing and in a central location.
