S:t Eriks torg - A Marketplace with Historical Roots 

S:t Eriks torg has been a marketplace for several hundred years. Throughout history, the square has been an important gathering place for markets, where local traders and visitors have met to buy and sell goods. It is this tradition and heritage that Uppsala’s Historical Christmas Market embraces. By the way, did you know that scenes from the classic Ingmar Bergman film Fanny & Alexander were filmed here in the square?
