Take a lovely stroll along the embankment followed by a meal at Restaurant River Café with the city lights twinkling in the background or, for a change of pace, take a boat ride into town.
Villan is an historic building that was built in 1916 as the Eriksbergs headquarters of the shipyard management and design office. Göteborg flourished as a shipbuilding town and Sweden became a world-leading shipbuilding nation.
When the shipbuilding era drew to a close in 1980, there was no longer a need for the executive residence. The 800-ton building was transported on barges along the river and back to land, moving it fifty meters from its original location. The bill for new foundations along with moving and repairing Villan was substantialor more precisely SEK20 Million. But preserving a cultural-historical quarter requires effort.
Göteborgs shipyard quarters with its fine old traditions are at present undergoing a slow and painstaking transformation. Cranes and overhead gantries are preserved while the residents of Göteborg make their homes in the new buildings lining the embankment. Eriksberg has morphed from a lively shipbuilding arena into a flourishing residential area. |
Today Eriksberg has morphed from a lively shipbuilding arena into a flourishing residential area. Former industrial buildings have become sports halls and many business companies have relocated to the area. Ericsson, Semcon, Caran, Hotell 11, Eriksbergshallen and SVT are a few of the enterprises represented here.
It would probably be hard to find any other example in the world where the outcome has been as successful as it has been here in Göteborg.
