Malmö

Malmö is Sweden’s border city in Skåne: rough around the edges, impossible not to like and better when it stops trying to behave. The charm is in the mix – port grit, parks, brutalism, bakeries, galleries, falafel, sea air and neighbourhoods that shift fast once you leave the centre.

Planning for Malmö? Start with our 48 hour weekend itinerary for the city.
