ESKILSTUNA - The Town of Murderous Saints and Medieval Smithies

The town of Eskilstuna in Sweden has a history that dates back to the Viking Age, and it's been a significant place for trade and manufacturing. In this video I'm exploring what you can find in the Town between the Lakes. For more videos every week, subscribe to the channel: https://www.youtube.com/threestarvaga... Also, join the Three Star Vagabond Facebook group to discuss upcoming videos:   / threestarvagabond   In the Middle Ages the town of Eskilstuna actually consisted of two towns - Tuna and Fors. Over time the towns grew together, but it was a process that took time, and yet another name change occurred in between. In this video I visit Eskilstuna and also visit many of the historically significant places in the town. Places I'm exploring include: The Kloster Church, one of the most noticeable landmarks in the town Gamla staden, the Old Town, including the Fors Church that dates back to the 1100s Sundbyholm Castle, where one of the first public schools in Sweden was built The Sigurd Carving, Sigurdsristningen, illustrating the tale of Sigurd Fafnirsbane from Snorri's Edda The Rademacher Smithies, from a time when Eskilstuna was called Carl Gustafs Town, and the Swedish king moved smithies from Latvia to Sweden because of the close proximity to Russia The Munktell Town, an area of Eskilstuna where the first steam locomotive in Sweden was built in 1853 Re-Tuna Återbruksgalleria, a mall filled with only refurbished second hand items Parken Zoo, a public park from 1898 that has a thriving zoo area as well as a theme park section...but it has also gone through a number of controversies... And a lot more! For example, all the famous statues that can be found across town, and other notable buildings and architecture. Either way, I hope you enjoy this look at a very interesting and historically significant town in Sweden. Twitter:   / vagabonddeluxe   Instagram:   / threestarvagabond
