A Historic Walking Tour in Gothenburg.
Step into the emotional story of over one million Swedes who left their homeland in search of a better life in America. Many of them took their final steps on Swedish soil right here in Gothenburg. This Swedish emigration tour brings that powerful history to life.
We begin at Gustav Adolfs Square, where your guide leads you through key locations in central Gothenburg connected to the great wave of emigration in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Hear the moving stories of young men and women who left everything behind, family, home, and language to face the unknown.
Discover the challenges they met, the dreams they carried, and how letters from “Amerikafarare” kept the connection alive across oceans. Learn how this legacy still lives on today through genealogy and the enduring cultural ties between Sweden and the United States.
A highlight of the tour is the visit to Kronhuset and Kronhusgården, Gothenburg’s oldest preserved building from the 1600s. In the cobblestone courtyards, surrounded by artisan shops and history, you’ll walk in the very footsteps of those who once emigrated.
NB: we can tailor the tour with additional options, adjust the duration for group bookings, and adapt the route for bus-based tours.
