Culture, history & art

Skellefteå is a town with a lot of history and culture. People have lived here for thousands of years, and left both buildings and other sites behind. Experience our cultural inheritage in both museums and outdoors in the wild. The inhabitants here in the north of Sweden have also always told stories - we have storytelling in our souls. So wherever you go, we can promise you there's a story to be found. Some of our stories are told through art - contemporary, modern, exploratory art while others can be found in remnants of old buildings.
