Gammelstad lies on the river Luleå Älv in the north of Sweden. It is an old parish with a long history. In the 14th century the village was founded where three waterways came together. In 1621 it was given the name Luleå, after the river. Officially designated by UNESCO as World Heritage Site, this site is to be safeguarded for the future as a testimony to its enduring past. The 26-part tv-series HERITAGE SITES of the WORLD is available in Dutch and English. Looking for broadcast footage? Don't shoot!
