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.

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.

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.

Lots of quirky little cute statues of shoes and cats. No English language so not sure what it s all about - but it’s a fun place.
