Göteborg is situated by the Kattegat, on the west coast of Sweden, by the mouth of the Göta älv and the Port of Göteborg is the largest port in the Nordic countries. The city was founded in 1621 by King Gustav II Adolf and is the second largest city in Sweden today. In the last decades Göteborg has gone from an industrial sea side town towards an innovative and modern city.
World-class seafood and restaurants, a rich cultural and musical life, good local beer and a beautiful cost line and archipelago are some of the things Göteborg is known for today.
Eriksberg area
Eriksberg is a historic industrial and wharf area that is and was formerly the seat of one of the major industrial and shipbuilding groups in Göteborg. In connection with the shipbuilding crisis the state took over the area, and in 1979 the last vessel was delivered. Before the new buildings, with much housing, the Eriksberg area was used, among other things, to organize large concerts with international artists like for example Michael Jackson, U2, the Rolling Stones and Madonna. Left from the shipbuilding area is the large crane that constitutes a landmark for the area. Among the preserved historical buildings are also Juvelkvarnen and Eriksbergshallen. Today the area also has a promenade alongside the river.
Fika [ˈfiːˌka]
is a concept in Swedish culture that means “to have coffee”, preferably accompanied with pastries or a small sandwich. In more modern meaning of the word, the coffee may be replaced by tea or some other brewages. Even just a lighter meal or just a sandwich may be referred to as a fika, like the English concept of afternoon tea. In Sweden pastries are often referred to as fikabröd (“fika bread”).
