This guided tour focuses on the ecclesiastical and academic heart of Uppsala, centred on the magnificent cathedral, the tallest church in the Nordic countries and the burial place of kings, saints and the botanist Carl Linnaeus. Exploring the cathedral and the surrounding old town, including the historic university quarter, a guide brings to life centuries of religion, learning and royal history. Combining soaring Gothic architecture with rich stories, it offers a deeper understanding of why Uppsala has been a centre of faith and knowledge for over a thousand years.
