What is Söderhamn famous for?
The bandy team Broberg/Söderhamn usually ranks high on the list of answers to this question. Not surprising, given that Broberg is one of the greatest clubs in Swedish bandy, with 56 seasons in the premier league and several national championships to its credit. Broberg´s greatest player was Göran “Dallas" Sedvall, who could perform impossible feats with a bandy ball.
The city´s most famous buildings are the Oscarsborg outlook tower on Östra Berget, which resembles a fairytale castle, the Ulrika Eleonora church, and the City Hall.
The city is also renowned for its many parks, which explode in a blaze of colour in spring and summer, attracting many visitors year after year.
Another popular visitor attraction is the F 15 Air Force Museum, which features all the aircraft types once deployed at the former air base such as the J 28 Vampire, J 29 Tunnan and SK 37 Viggen.
The archipelago with its 500 islands is another feature that makes Söderhamn special. Communities in the archipelago include the much loved fishing village of Skärså, which attracts summer visitors by the thousand.
