Stortorget – Malmö
Stortorget – The Historic Heart of Malmö
Stortorget, Malmö’s largest and oldest square, is a vibrant hub of history, culture, and Scandinavian charm. Established in the 16th century, this grand square has been the center of Malmö’s political and commercial life for centuries, surrounded by historic buildings, cozy cafés, and stunning architecture.
At the heart of Stortorget stands the equestrian statue of King Karl X Gustav, who played a key role in Sweden’s expansion and the annexation of Skåne from Denmark in 1658. Overlooking the square is the Malmö City Hall (Rådhuset), a beautiful Dutch Renaissance-style building dating back to 1546, with an intricately detailed façade. Nearby, the Kockska Huset, once home to a wealthy merchant, adds to the square’s medieval charm.
A short walk from Stortorget leads to Lilla Torg, a picturesque smaller square filled with timber-framed buildings, restaurants, and lively outdoor seating. Whether enjoying a coffee in the square, admiring the historic surroundings, or exploring Malmö’s rich heritage, Stortorget remains the beating heart of the city.
