Built in 1886, the Södra Vattentornet (South Water Tower) is one of Örebro’s most recognizable landmarks. Located just north of Gustavsvik, the historic tower now stands beside a cozy restaurant where you can stop for a meal and enjoy the unique setting.

The central Stortorget (Great Square) was created after the city fire of 1854, which destroyed large parts of the wooden town of Örebro. In 1880, it was expanded to its current size and complemented by Oskarsparken to the east. At 362 meters, Stortorget is one of the longest squares in Sweden. Due to the gently curving ridge of stone that runs through the center of Örebro, the terrain slopes down to the east.

The Svartån, a river 100 kilometers long, originates in Lake Ölen on the border with Värmland. It flows through Örebro and empties into Lake Hjälmaren shortly after leaving the city.

The Kanslibron bridge connects the northern Svartåstranden near Olaigatan with Slottsparksholmen. It is named after the chancellery that once stood at the southwestern foot of the original wooden bridge. In 1584, Duke Charles (later King Charles IX) decided to build the first wooden bridge, which stood 75 meters east of the current bridge. It was called the Sågkvarnsbron bridge. This bridge was probably not intended for general use, but only for traffic to Örebro Castle. It was demolished in 1766 because the current stone arch bridge had been built in 1765, at the same time as the conversion of Örebro Castle into a Baroque palace.

Örebro Castle is situated on an island in the Svartån River. It was originally built, presumably in the mid-14th century, by King Magnus Eriksson as a fortified castle. Around 1600, during the reign of Duke Charles, and from 1604 onwards King Charles IX, it was remodeled into a Renaissance castle in the French style. By this time, it had largely lost its function as a defensive structure. The renovations carried out in the 20th century did not alter the exterior of the castle, but none of the interior rooms remain in their original condition. Since 1764, the Governor of Örebro County has resided in the castle's northwest tower.
