The delightful municipality of Norrkoping is situated at the mouth of the River Motala Strom in eastern Sweden and provides the ideal location for a serviced apartment or holiday letting. Here you can enjoy browsing the museums, admiring some spectacular architecture and taking long, leisurely strolls along the riverfront.

A fun way to travel round the town and take in some of the sights is to ride one of the yellow trams. Look out for the wonderful old water tower, a vast and impressive red, cylindrical tower with some particularly nice detailing, as well as The Church of Saint Olof built in the mid 1700s and boasting a stunning façade.

The town itself is small enough to cover on foot and a walk along the promenades is a pleasant way to enjoy the river views. In the town you will also find Carl Johan’s Park which, in the summertime, is home to 25,000 cacti and definitely worth a look.

Your self-catered apartment or aparthotel in Norrkoping also gives you access to the Art Museum where you can enjoy a vast collection of both contemporary works and 20th century modern pieces. An absorbing couple of hours for those interested in art.

Another museum well worth a visit is Arbetets Museum of Work. This museum is situated in a beautiful 19th century building called The Iron that is actually located in the River Motala Strom. This old cotton mill gives detailed documentation of the life of a Swedish textile mill worker and the conditions under which they carried out their day to day duties. Here you can read all about Alva Carlsson, a former cotton mill worker, you will also find interesting interactive exhibits and a collection of items representing each decade, from the 50s right up to present day. After your tour why not stop off at Café Iron for a drink and a bite to eat. A thoroughly intriguing afternoon.

A short distance from Norrkoping you will find Hallristningsmuseet. Here you can take a guided tour along the river and view some exquisite Bronze Age rock carvings. There is also an interesting museum on this site that is well worth a browse.
