The town of Falun and its surroundings were added to UNESCO World Heritage Site list to preserve its famous copper mine – arguably the world’s oldest enterprise still active since the 10th century. Come to see the site that used to cover two thirds of Europe’s copper needs.
Mora is apparently most renowned for crafted sheath knives produced there for more than two centuries. It is also a magnificent town with historical significance to the Kingdom of Sweden.
