Pelle Svanslös lekplats i Uppsala

This is where Pelle Svanslös (Peter No Tail), Uppsala’s most famous cat, lives

You’ve certainly heard of Pelle, whose tail was bitten off by a rat. Pelle is Uppsala’s most well-known cat and also the most good-natured. If you’re lucky you might meet him as you walk along Åsgränd and in the area around Öfre Slottsgatan. If not, you can stop anyway at Pelle Svanslös playground in the park next to where he lives. You can also go on a guided tour in Pelle’s “pawsteps”; you can get more information at Go Adventure.
