world reviewer
The city of Uppsala is one the largest in Sweden, known for many
important historical buildings. Kings, scientists, and even the revered
Saint Eric are buried on the grounds of the city’s famous medieval
cathedral. While younger than the cathedral, Uppsala University was
founded in 1477 and is the oldest Scandinavian university.
