We kind of accidentally discovered this place last week when I took my parents to Linkoping whilst they were over visiting from the UK. My parents and I were so impressed with this place. It's how Linkoping would have been in the past, with working museums, delightful shops, beautiful buildings and rich culture and history. We all found the place... More

All things are old here, they gathered old houses from different neighbors of Linköping and made an old city. If you travel to Linköping, this is a must see for you. Have a visit and enjoy the Swedish traditional lifestyle. More

This is a must see if you travel to Linköping. Gamla Linköping is a suprisingly big collection of old houses set up in a manner that realistically recreates how it could have looked like a 100 years ago.

Gamla Linköping (on the outskirts of Linköping) is a collection of scores of older houses and commercial properties that over the years have been physically transported there as Linköping was redeveloped. The aim is to recreate what a small Swedish town would have looked like in the 19th century, with all the shops and tradespeople. Many of the houses have... More
