Culture

Sandviken has a varied cultural offering for all ages, just one of the many things that makes Sandviken such a great place to live.
Among other things, Sandviken has unique industrial environments, from the historic mills of 17th century Gysinge to the 1970s urban developments in the city center – a long tradition of people working with iron that dates back centuries, if not millennia.
