Malmö Castle was built back in 1434 by Eric of Pomerania, king of Sweden, Denmark and Norway. The location of the castle was strategic and of great importance. The west part of the city was protected and shipping traffic on the southern part of the Öresund monitored. Today, the castle has been restored in the spirit of the 16th century. It’s the place of Malmö Museum, which is the largest museum in southern Sweden.
