MAIN SQUARE (STORTORGET)

It is considered one of the most beautiful squares in Northern Europe. It is very large and offers a striking view of the ochre-coloured buildings that surround it; in the centre stands the statue of Charles XI, the founder of the city. If you walk along Ronnebygatan (the main street), you will see the round forms of the Holy Trinity Church, whose plan was designed by Tessin the Younger based on a Roman church model. This church also attests to the presence, until the middle of the 19th century, of a Germanic community.
