Shopping in Gothenburg
Distinctive Nordic creativity is a feature at Designtorget in the city centre, with its ever-changing range of speciality items. But don't miss Gothenburg's biggest department store, Nordiska Kompaniet.

Shops are open throughout the week from 9am or 10am to 5pm or 6pm, with shorter hours on Saturdays and Sundays.
