Every design for Lilla Edet

Where the Göta älv divides the landscape lies Lilla Edet, in everyday speech simply called Edet, with its origins in Fuxerna parish on the eastern side of the river. In times past this is where travellers stopped – the place was an inn and the court seat of the Flundre hundred, and to this day the history is in the air. West of the water spreads Ström, an area now counted as a town of its own.

The Lilla Edet lock lifts the boats past the rapids in the Göta älv, and up on the height Ström castle watches over the district. If you want to get away for a while, Fågelsjön and Rågårdskullen are within reach, places that belong to everyday life for anyone living here. It is the details that make a town into a home district.

You who have Lilla Edet under your skin recognise the lock, the river and the roads home without having to think. Let the map of your own town be a small way of carrying the feeling of belonging somewhere – wherever life takes you next.
