Every design for Arboga

Where the Arbogaån runs through Västmanland lies Arboga, the main town of the municipality that shares its name. The river has shaped the town in every age, and around it the landscape opens out with water such as Sundsjön within reach. Here waterway, history and an unmistakable small-town feeling meet.

There is a weight to the streets of Arboga that stirs memories of older times — the echo of Sten Sture, the ruin of the Sankta Karin chapel and houses that have carried generations. The town gathers its story in several museums: Arboga museum, the unusual Robotmuseet and the Bryggerimuséet, each reflecting the place through the years in its own way.

The Sankta Karin chapel is one of those landmarks that make Arboga impossible to mistake, a silent witness standing in the middle of town. Having it and the street pattern gathered on the fabric becomes a way of holding on to a place you are fond of — a map t-shirt of Arboga for anyone who feels at home by the river.
