Höganäs

Population: 13 550
Year: 2010

Höganäs is world famous for its cheramics factory, but is one of the smallest incorporated cities in Skåne. Despite it is considered a city and is located by the
sea, it feels very small and dead. For example there are only 1 or 2 small restaurants in the center and no department store, that is unusual even for towns in
Sweden.

Höganäs Kyrka (Himmelsfärdskyrkan) at Kyrkplatsen. It was inaugurated in 1934. One of the few old buildings in Höganäs.

Centralgatan.

The 15-storey Jefasthuset from 2007 is the “skyscraper” of Höganäs, that is considered very controversial in the city because of its “extreme height”. J

Since most old buildings have been torn down, there are mostly uninspiring brick architecture in the city…

…but a few nice old buildings are left.

The beach of Höganäs have palms.

Höganäs keramik (cheramics) is world famous. The cheramics for Sydney Opera House for example was manufactured here.
