  • Virtual walk in charming small town Norrtälje, the seat of Norrtälje Municipality, Stockholm County, Sweden. Filmed on a Sunday in November.
    From wiki:
    Norrtälje’s early history dates back to the Iron Age. Around 225 ancient monuments have been found within what is now the city. Three ancient castles are assumed to have stood in the former villages Nordrona, Solbacka and Knutby. Norrtälje traces its more recent history to 1219, when the location was first mentioned as Tälje. After some time, the name officially became Norrtälje, to distinguish it from the other Tälje in the province, Södertälje.
    The town of Norra Tällie was founded by King Gustav II Adolf in 1622, as were several other towns after the outbreak of the Thirty Years' War, The city arms were created as an upside down anchor as early as 1622 when the charter was granted.
    In 1719, large parts of the central town were burnt down by a Russian army during the Russian Pillage of 1719-21. The new stone church was not finished until 1726, and it was another four years before the city hall was completed.
    Norrtälje had a railway station on the narrow gauge Roslagsbanan from 1884 to 1969. It is now served by SL buses as a part of the system of public transport in Stockholm.
    Norrtälje has a first class industrial heritage displayed in the Pythagoras Mechanical Workshop Museum, based in the premises of a former hot bulb engine factory.

    Just as I remember it from 2014 and 2015 when we visited for my son's ice hockey camp. Beautiful town, wonderful people. A glimpse of how the whole world should be but isn't.

    When you say that Norrtalje is one hour from Stockholm … Is that by car or train? Do you take the train to the small towns that you visit?

    • @StockholmWalks
      @StockholmWalks  Před rokem

      To Norrtälje you take a buss or car. I very rarely go to a place just to film, I’m usually there for another reason and / or passing through. Most times by car I must admit. Like in Norrtälje, I stopped on my way back to Stockholm.
