Serviced Apartments in Uppsala

Uppsala, Sweden’s 4th largest city has two very different faces, a diverse contrast of old and new that are cleverly divided by the Fyris River flowing between the city’s modern and ancient towns. What better way to explore both these intriguing regions than a rented serviced apartment or holiday letting right here in the heart of Uppsala.

In Gamla Uppsala, Old Uppsala, you will be stepping back in time as you walk the narrow, cobbled streets past stunning old bridges and the ancient dwellings of the open air museum. Here you will also find various other museums, an old church and some fascinating prehistoric burial mounds.

Uppsala also boasts some other incredible architecture including her 800 year old cathedral. This cathedral stands over 118 metres tall and is the tallest church in Scandinavia. This imposing yet beautiful structure is also the burial place of king Gustav Vasa and his three wives and here you will find lavish chapels, exquisite décor and even a delightful little café in one part of the cathedral which is pleasantly furnished with traditional furniture giving it a really homely, welcoming feel. A lovely place to grab a drink and a bite to eat.

Uppsala Castle is also well worth a look. This impressive piece of architecture was built for King Gustav Vasa in the 1500s and is now home to several interesting museums as well as the city’s Governor.

Your self-catered apartment or aparthotel in Uppsala also provides access to The Gustavianum. This wonderful structure was built as the main building for the university and here you will still be able to see the domed anatomical centre, which dates back around 400 years, where many public dissections were carried out, thankfully it is no longer in use but provides a real insight into early medical training. The Gustavianum is also home to the cultural history collections that belong to the university, a Museum of Nordic Antiquities and The Victoria Museum of Egyptian Antiques. All are well worth a look and provide several hours of interest for the whole family.

For a delightful place to eat that is within close proximity of your apartment rental or holiday let in Uppsala take a stroll over to Villa Anna. Enjoy traditional Scandinavian cuisine Al Fresco with wonderful views of the castle. The food is delicious, the service is excellent and the wines are superb.
