Örebro University

The city of Örebro, home to the Örebro University, is situated in the heart of Sweden, about halfway between Stockholm and Göteborg. It is easily accessible by major roads and railways, or by air from Stockholm, Copenhagen and Malmö. From the Örebro region, everything Scandinavia has to offer is easily within reach. Örebro has about 125, 000 inhabitants and is therefore Sweden's seventh largest city. The city of Örebro has grown around a medieval castle. At a natural fording point over the river Svartån, fortifications were started by German merchants and artisans in the 13th century. These eventually grew into the present medieval castle, one of the central area's most spectacular sights. The castle, called Slottet, is to this day the centre point of Örebro and actively serves as residence for the County Governor. It also houses a museum, concert hall, conference centre, pub, restaurant and a tourist office.

Student Accomodation is organized by the ÖBO. For more information and links, use the Örebro University website.
