Göteborg
has functioned as an urban centre with a civic organisation
and local government, whose purpose has been to care
for the welfare of its inhabitants, for 375 years.
The city was founded in 1621 by the Swedish King Gustav
II Adolf, but it was developed largely by city planners
and canal experts from the Netherlands and Germany.
To this day the city owes much to the influence of people
from abroad. Tourists and other visitors return year
after year - the Göteborg region is one of the
most poular tourist areas in Scandinavia.
The Göteborg region has more than 600.000 inhabitants.
Göteborg has everything a modern city should be
able to offer, combined with a relaxed and welcoming
atmosphere.
