Discover the Historic Uppsala
Overview of the tour in Uppsala
Uppsala is an elegant Swedish town just a few kilometers from Stockholm. The city is home to one of the oldest and most prestigious universities in the world, the largest cathedral in Northern Europe (119m high, more than Florence Cathedral), and the famous Silver Bible in the Carolina Rediviva University Library.
Uppsala was also the birthplace of important academics and scientists such as Anders Celsius, Dag Hammarskjöld, Carl Linnaeus, and the famous film director Ingmar Bergman.
