Copper, cobblestones, and kings in the World Heritage city of Falun - then and now

Join us on an exciting journey through time in Falun, ending with coffee and pastries! On this walk, you'll experience Falun from its delightful side to the truly gritty side. Your guide will offer you a taste of the long history that Falun has to offer.

With over a thousand years of history, the city has grown alongside the mighty copper mine and industry, leaving its mark both then and now. Experience a grand journey through the 17th century's golden days, where you'll meet famous personalities and explore the smoke-stained neighborhoods where the less fortunate lived.
