About Oskarshamn
Oskarshamn is the pearl of the east coast, a small town of just the right size that has made and continues to make significant and valuable contributions to its surroundings in many areas. From the medieval fishing village of Döderhultsvik, our lovely harbor town has grown and evolved over the centuries into not only a place of islands and lakes (6139 and 553 respectively, to be exact), but also a home, a workplace, a garden, and a popular destination for thousands of people. A culturally rich city life meets a picturesque rural landscape of Småland, with the sea and archipelago just around the corner. Here, you will find events and attractions of all kinds, big and small, from educational dives into the local history through one of the area’s museums and cultural heritage sites to a major music festival featuring artists known throughout the country. Oskarshamn offers beautiful views and outdoor activities, cozy shopping, delicious dining options, and world-class fika (coffee break). What more could one wish for?
