Sundsvall was a long, small town with many small wooden houses that were densely packed and crowded. But after the great fire known as the Sundsvallbranden (the Sundsvall fire) in the late 1800s, the town was devastated and was re-built with tall buildings of brick and stone that would protect against fire and make the city more beautiful. Today, Sundsvall has an airy and modern feel and you can enjoy nature from the skyscrapers located on enclosed shopping streets.
Book a guided tour through Sundsvall and learn more about Stenstan (Stone Town) and how people lived back then.

It is easy to get out onto the archipelago and there are also boats to most of the islands that leave directly from the centre of Sundsvall.
