Uppsala

Uppsala is a city in central Sweden. (cm. Sweden) northwest of Stockholm a. The administrative center of Uppsala County, located in the Upland region. It is located in a fertile plain on the banks of the Furis River at its confluence with Lake Mälaren. Distance to Stockholm - 66 km. Population - 128.4 thousand inhabitants (2006). Mechanical engineering, printing and pharmaceutical industries are developed.
The city is a renowned university center in Europe, open to young people of all nationalities and religions and associated with the life and scientific work of the naturalist Carl Linnaeus, the astronomer and physicist Anders Celsius and the chemist Berzelius. In addition, the physician and mathematician, the rector of Uppsala University Olaf Rudbeck, the chemist Karl Wilhelm Scheele, and the playwright and director Ingmar Bergman lived and worked in Uppsala.
When talking about the history of Uppsala, one should distinguish between Old Uppsala and the modern city. Old Uppsala is the ancient center of the kingdom of the Swedish Vikings in the 6th-9th centuries. - located 5 km north of the city itself; now only mounds remain on the site of the once rich city.
According to legend, the great Odin had a vision that he would become the father of the northern people and the ruler of a beautiful country. After that, he went north and founded the country of the Svei, and began to rule in the city of Uppsala, which he founded. The tombs of kings in Old Uppsala indicate that a settlement existed here already in the 5th century. As a result of the conquest of other local tribes by the Swedes, the city became the center of the emerging Swedish state; the residence of the high priest, who was also the supreme king, was located in Uppsala. The city saw the battles of the Vikings, the greatness and fall of kings, here the Swean kings gathered for the Thing and warriors buried their leaders. This is how a whole valley of mounds was formed in Uppsala - many powerful leaders wanted to find their last refuge here. Now the “Valley of the Kings” is the main part of the museum complex.
In 1164, Christianity was established in Old Uppsala, and the first Archbishop of Sweden established his residence here. On the site of a pagan sanctuary, a building richly decorated with gold and silver, where, according to legend, there were sculptural images of the gods Odin, Thor and Freyer, in the 12th century. A church was built that remains to this day. The remaining sanctuaries were also destroyed, and in the legends and songs of the skalds, references to pagan gods began to be replaced by the name of Christ. Old Uppsala is now recognized as the most valuable monument of the pre-Christian history of Sweden. The open-air museum “Disagarden” is also located in the protected area.
The history of the modern city began at the beginning of the 13th century, when it was decided to move the shopping center of the growing and developing Old Uppsala to a more convenient location several kilometers upstream of the river. In 1245, Old Uppsala burned down, and the settlement, along with the fire victims, inherited the name of the former city. In 1273, the bishop's residence moved here. Uppsala University, founded in 1477, was the first university in Scandinavia. It was created on the initiative of the Primate of the Swedish Catholic Church, Archbishop Jacob Ulvsson of Uppsala. The city is also famous for the fact that Swedish monarchs were crowned here until 1719. In the most beautiful cathedral in Northern Europe, outstanding politicians and scientists are buried, who left their mark on the history of the country. Modern Uppsala is an amazingly beautiful and pleasant city, the rhythm of life of which is largely set by young people, since every sixth resident of the city is a student.
The national shrine and the oldest church in Sweden is the Uppsala Cathedral, recognized as the tallest in Scandinavia (118.7 m, height equal to length). This impressive structure was founded in 1260, when the city had only 800 inhabitants, its construction lasted 175 years. The temple was restored several times, in particular after fires. The last restoration was completed in 1976.
The walls of the cathedral are covered with paintings, the total area of ​​which is 13,000 m2, its stained glass window is the largest in Sweden. It will be interesting to see the pulpit dating back to 1709. The main shrine of the temple is the golden tomb of Eric the Saint; Also, many kings and prominent figures of Sweden are buried in the cathedral: Gustav Vasa with both spouses, Johan III, Carl Linnaeus, Nathan Söderblom and Emmanuel Swedenborg. The northern tower of the temple houses the Cathedral Museum.
One of the main attractions of modern Uppsala is Uppsala Castle. The order for the construction of his residence was given in 1549 by the founder of the Vasa dynasty, the reformer of the Swedish church and state, King Gustav I Vasa. The castle performed, along with a residential and protective function, being a fortress with two bastions - Styrbiskop and Gresgården, between which there were living quarters and state rooms. During the reign of Gustav I Vasa's son Johan III, the castle church was built. On one of the castle's bastions is the Bell of Gunilla, a gift given to the castle by the second wife of King Johan III.
After a severe fire in 1702, the castle was abandoned, but was restored and by 1757 acquired its current appearance. The former coronation site of the Swedish monarchs has since served various functions: the castle has been used as the residence of the governors of the province of Upland, a prison and an archive. After a large-scale restoration in 1994, the State Hall and the castle church were opened to tourists. Now the castle houses the Uppsala Art Museum, where temporary exhibitions are exhibited, giving an overview of the historical events of Sweden, graphic art of the 16th - early 21st centuries. and a fine collection of portraits from the first half of the 20th century, as well as the residence of the Governor of Upland and the wax museum "Vasa Vignettes", where the most significant events of past years are reproduced in costume, color and music.
The Linnaeus Botanical Garden with its beautiful ponds, laid out in 1655 according to the design of Olaf Rudben, is named after Carl Linnaeus, professor of medicine and botany, also called the King of Flowers, who conducted his scientific experiments here. After his death in 1778, the Linnean Society redesigned the gardens according to the scientist's own design dating back to 1745. Nowadays, 1,300 plant species grow here, arranged according to the Linnaean classification. All year round you can see beautiful flowers in the garden, some of which bloom in summer, others in autumn, and others in winter and autumn.
The Gustavianium Museum is the oldest building of Uppsala University, founded in 1477. By the end of the 15th century, only 45 students were studying here. Today the building houses the exposition of the Museum of Northern Antiques and university collections.
The townspeople are especially proud of the Carolina Rediviva University Library, restored after the fire of 1702. The library's most famous publication is the handwritten Silver Bible, a 6th-century Gothic translation of the Christian holy book done in silver ink. This book was stolen from Prague by Swedish troops at the end of the Thirty Years' War.
Linnaeus's estate is located 13 km south of Uppsala behind the Danish Church. Linnaeus bought this manor in 1758 and lived here with his family in the summer. In front of the main building there is a small botanical garden, and in the pavilion where Linnaeus lectured there is a greenhouse.
While in Uppsala, you should definitely visit Vik Castle, which is located on the shores of the picturesque Lake Mälaren in the town of Mälardalen, 20 km southeast of Uppsala. It was built in the 15th century on the model of Norman castles of the 13th century and is considered one of the most impregnable fortresses of medieval Sweden: during the internecine wars, the soldiers of Gustav I Vasa besieged the castle for a year, but were never able to take it. During the reconstruction of the 1650s, the interior of the castle, with the exception of the dungeon, was significantly modernized: the windows were enlarged and a new main gate was made, which was decorated with sculptures.

A good view of the cathedral opens from the royal palace, which was built by order of King Gustav I in the 16th century, during the formation of Sweden as an independent state. The palace was badly damaged by a fire in 1572 and acquired its modern appearance at the beginning of the 17th century. But in 1702, a fire again destroyed the palace, after which it lay in ruins for a long time and was finally restored in 1815-1820. Currently, the palace houses several museums and the regional administration.

Near the palace there is a beautiful park and botanical garden. Entrance to the garden is free (information). There is a separate garden with a museum dedicated to Carl Linnaeus, the most famous biologist in the world, the creator of a unified system for classifying flora and fauna. And if many people hardly remember the classes of plants and animals from school, then everyone knows another of his inventions - binomial nomenclature. The word is complex, but you have come across this term many times, especially if you paid attention to the names of plants in botanical gardens, where they are all called something like “pipitus vulgaris” :) For example, the species tiger (tigris) belongs to the genus cat (felis) and is designated Felis tigris, that is, species and genus are written together. And the most famous examples are Tyrannosaurus rex and Homo sapiens.

The botanical garden belongs to Uppsala University, the oldest in Scandinavia, founded in 1477. The names of such scientists as Anders Celsius (guess what is named after him:), Carl Linnaeus, Andres Angström (the angström distance measurement value of 10 −10 m is named after him), and others are associated with the university. The old main building of the university houses the Gustavianum Museum (information).

Old Uppsala is located 5 kilometers from the city center (on the map). This is an ancient pagan settlement, the residence of the kings of the semi-legendary Yngling dynasty, which ruled from the 3rd-4th centuries. Apart from mounds and burials, nothing remains since then, but there is an open-air museum with old houses and a medieval church. From the center you can take bus number 2.

On the streets of the city we saw a homeless man with a very unusual bicycle.

General information

Uppsala (Sweden) is located 67 km north of Stockholm. Thanks to the high-speed train that runs between these cities, many Uppsala residents commute to the capital for work. The city, with an area of ​​47 km², stretches along the banks of the small river Furis. About 150 thousand people live in Uppsala - it is the 4th most populous city in Sweden.

The first settlement, called Uppsala, appeared in the 5th century, and began to actively grow and develop. After several centuries, the trade and business center of the city moved to a more convenient location several kilometers downstream of the river, closer to its mouth. The new settlement was named Estra-Aros (Eastern Mouth).

In 1245, there was a fire in Uppsala, almost the entire city was destroyed, including the residence of the archbishop of the Church of Sweden. They did not restore the ashes, moving all the most valuable things from the burned city to the neighboring Estra Aros: the residence of the archbishop along with the center of the archdiocese, as well as the name Uppsala, which replaced the previous name of the city.

Over time, the burned-down former Uppsala turned into a small parish. Now this area has been declared a protected area. Old Uppsala attracts tourists with its attractions - burial mounds from the 5th-6th centuries, a surviving medieval church and the open-air museum “Disagården”.

And the new Uppsala has worthily passed its historical path, becoming one of the most significant cities in Sweden and preserving a significant part of its ancient buildings to this day.

Attractions
