About Malmö
Malmö is Sweden's southern gateway on the Öresund strait, with a twisting skyscraper, a Renaissance castle, canal parks and a link to Copenhagen.
Malmö faces Copenhagen across the Öresund strait, joined by the long Öresund bridge-tunnel, and is Skåne's main city, in southern Sweden. The Turning Torso, a 190-metre tower that twists as it rises, is the city's modern landmark. Stortorget is the old market square, framed by the Dutch Renaissance town hall, and Malmöhus, a castle begun in the sixteenth century, stands in a park with moats and canals.
