About Gavle

Gavle is the most historically significant port city on the Swedish Bothnian coast and the oldest city in Norrland — a city of 105,000 inhabitants on the Gavle River at the Gulf of Bothnia 138km north of Arlanda Airport, whose extraordinary heritage as the first city in northern Sweden to receive its charter (founded 1446, the most historically senior city in Norrland), the Gamla Gavle (Old Gavle, the most completely preserved 17th-18th century wooden town district in Sweden, its red-painted timber houses surviving the great fire of 1869 that destroyed most of the city, the finest surviving example of the traditional Swedish wooden town streetscape in central Sweden), the Gavle Goat (the Gavlebocken, the world's most famous Christmas goat, a giant Yule goat erected every year in Gavle's Castle Square since 1966, which has become internationally famous for being repeatedly burned down by arsonists — the most celebrated Christmas tradition in Sweden and one of the most followed annual news events in Scandinavia) and the extraordinary Furuvik theme park give it an identity of great character.

Gavle's most important cultural heritage is the Gavle County Museum (the most important museum of Gastrikland and Halsingland culture, its collection documenting the extraordinary timber and seafaring heritage of the Bothnian coast) and the Silvanum Forest Museum (the most important collection of Swedish forestry history and the forest industry that made Gavle the most significant timber export port in 19th-century Sweden). The Halsingland region immediately north of Gavle (the most important concentration of decorated farmhouses in Sweden, the UNESCO-listed Halsingland farmhouses — the most magnificently painted and most elaborately decorated rural wooden architecture in Europe, their painted interiors representing the peak of Swedish folk painting tradition, one of the most extraordinary concentrations of vernacular art in Northern Europe) gives Gavle its role as the southern gateway to one of the most remarkable rural heritage landscapes in the world.
