Bengt-at-Limmerhult Says: When you visit Linköping you must not miss the Old Town of Linköping. This is not a traditional old town because none of the old buildings are in there original location. The buildings are moved from different locations in the city of Linköping to this "museum" area.It's...
Linköping Castle and Diocese Museum
Sjalen Says: Linköping Castle has today been turned into a museum showing the history of the city which is quite dramatic. The castle itself is not one of those romantic ones but is still a lot older than it seems. In fact, it is the oldest non ecclesiastic building in Sweden! Its oldest...
Sjalen Says: The cathedral is not the most impressive in Sweden today, but visible for miles on the surrounding plain with its 107 metre tall spire and one of the most important sights in Linköping and to me it is one of the best cathedrals to visit. It is a really old church as it was...
Sjalen Says: Planes from the beginning of aviation in Sweden (partly here in Malmslätt) through to the latest development in Linköping - the Jas 39 Gripen air force plane which you can also test in a simulator (see homepage if you want to book it in advance - it costs around SEK 150 to...
Strombus Says: A fortified castle originally built in 1298 on a lovely, and strategically important location on the shores of the huge Lake Vänem. The walls and sealings are richly painted in most rooms, and some 20 rooms out of the 200 are furnished with 17th century furniture. The...

Coffeehouse by George: Good food and drinks
Marpessa Says: Coffeehouse by Gerorge is a chainstore coffeehouse throughout Sweden. The one in Linköping is situated on stora torget, so if you get a seat by the window it is a good place to people watch.The atmosphere of the coffeehouse is how a coffeehouse should be - nice and relaxed,...
Bosses glassbar: Best ice cream in town
hco Says: Let's set things straight. You go to Bosses to buy ice cream. Nothing else. But it is the best ice cream and it tastes marvelous! They make it themselves and it often contains chunks of whateever-the-taste-is. I.e. the chocolate ice cream has pieces of chocolate in it...
Psife Says: B&K, short for Bar and Kitchen, is a great restaurant and nightclub in central Linköping. It's always a long line outside but it's woth the wait. With two floors packed with people and a great bar (B&K have bartender courses so the staff eally knows how to mix your drink,...
Marpessa Says: Platå is both a restaurant and a club. I have only been here to the club though.Students (international ones mainly) come here on Thursdays, where entrance is free before 10pm and drinks are half price after 11pm (for the rest of the night). The club upstairs officially...
HG (Ryds Herrgård): Student Life
Marpessa Says: HG is one of the most popular places for Linköpings university students to hang out.It is especially popular on Tuesday nights when entry is free (20kr for the cloakroom). This is the main night of the week when you'll find the international students here. There is a 'happy...
Marpessa Says: An easy way to get around Linköping is to take the bus. Recently there has been a change in buying tickets. To reduce the amount of money the drivers carry they are being more persuasive for people to buy travel cards (which came in various forms, day passes, 15 days or 30...
Marpessa Says: Now, I like travelling by train, I love to have a window seat and watch the countryside go by, I find it nice and relaxing. And if you travel by train in Sweden you will get great views. It's just the prices that aren't that great, it can be very expensive to travel by train...
(Tornby Köpcentrum): Tornby Shopping Centre
Marpessa Says: Tornby is a suburb in the north of Linköping. I've found it to be a great place to do some shopping, not just for clothes, but for furniture, books, computer equipment...There are about 3 main shopping buildings here, all within 5 mins walk of each other. The main building...
Diana75 Says: Within a walking distance from the cathedral is Linkoping town center.Easily accessible, with pleasant squares and pedestrian streets here can be found major chain stores (H&M), trendy boutiques or specialist shops.
Dizzyhead Says: You find the tourist office in Linköping on Östgötagatan 5. You can get all information you need from them about Linköping and also the region Östergötland. The stuff here will inform you what you can do in Linköping and Östergötland. Dont be shy, ask if they can give you...
Marpessa Says: When I travel abroad and go to a foreign country that doesn't speak English as a first language I usually try to learn some words to help me get by (although since I am staying here so long I have just started language classes). So I'll list some Swedish words here that...
Marpessa Says: Rökstenen (The Smoke Stone) is a rune stone that stands at 2.5m tall above the earth, with another 1.5m below it. It has the most amount of letters found on it than any other rune stone in the world.It is believed that the stone was created (carved) as early as 800 A.D. The...
Diana75 Says: The stunning cathedral, the small town center with narrow pedestrian streets, the colorful flowers all over the town, old buildings, monuments, nice terraces for enjoying a drink are only some of the things that contribute to Linkoping's wonderful atmosphere.A stop to...
