Gothenburg has no single square that sums up the city the way a medieval old town does elsewhere. Its sightseeing instead runs along water and up a handful of hilltops, and it rewards a route rather than a checklist. https://travelermania.com/guides/activities/shows-and-events-gothenburg/?v=1 Sun, 13 Sep 2026 10:25:00 +0000 https://travelermania.com/guides/activities/shows-and-events-gothenburg/?v=1 Heads up: some links here are affiliate links.

Land in Gothenburg expecting a smaller Stockholm and the city will not make sense.
