Malmö průvodce

Malmö (help·info) IPA: [ˈmalːˌmøː] (Danish: Malmø) is the third largest city in Sweden, situated in its southernmost province of Scania. Malmö is the seat of Malmö Municipality and the capital of Skåne County.

It has 280,144 inhabitants (2007) (about 605,000 in the metro area). Malmö was one of the earliest and most industrialized towns of Scandinavia, but until the turn of the Millenium had been struggling with the adaptation to post-industrialism. Since then, Malmö has become a new city, with impressive architectural developments, attracting new biotech and IT companies, and particularly students through Malmö University.

The city contains many historic buildings and parks, and is also a commercial center for the western part of Scania. During the last few years a university college (University College of Malmö) has been established and the city is now trying to focus on education, arts and culture. Malmö was recently ranked #4 in Grist Magazine's "15 Green Cities" list. [3]

The administrative entity for most of the city Malmö is the Malmö Municipality, referred to as Malmö Stad, or City of Malmö in English.
