Arvika Torg

If the street network is the skeleton of the city, the square is its heart! The railway station is the backdrop and at the other end of Torggatan you can see the Trinity Church on the hill. Before the railway was built, the square had direct contact with the harbor and was the most important place for trade. Even today, there is a market every Wednesday and Saturday. The popular Arvikamârten takes place in October.

It was around the square that the largest and grandest buildings were erected around the turn of the century 1900. Dahlinshuset was one of them, which tragically burned down on New Year's Eve 2016. In its place stands a building designed by Brunnberg & Forshed that has adapted to its surroundings.

The square also features the sculpture Fågelmannen by Liss Eriksson from 1971 and "Händelser vid torget" by Ingrid Falk from 2021.
