[ 9 ] Malmö is considered a gamma-level ball-shaped city by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network. Malmö was one of the earliest and most industrialized towns in Scandinavia, but it struggled to adapt to post-industrialism. Since the 2000 completion of the Öresund Bridge, Malmö has undergo a major transformation, producing modern architectural developments, supporting new biotechnology and IT companies, and attracting students through Malmö University and other higher education facilities. Over fourth dimension, Malmö ‘s demographics have changed and by the plow of the 2020s about half the municipal population had a foreign background.

history [edit ]
The earliest written note of Malmö as a city dates from 1275. [ 11 ] It is thought to have been founded soon before that date, [ 11 ] as a arm quay or ferry berth of the Archbishop of Lund, [ 12 ] some 20 kilometres ( 12 miles ) to the northeast. Malmö was for centuries Denmark ‘s second-biggest city. Its master name was Malmhaug ( with alternate spellings ), meaning “ Gravel stack ” or “ Ore Hill ”. An understudy narrative stems from a more ghastly narrative that suggests that a inaugural was once ground up in a mill on what is nowadays the town hearty. The name would originate from ‘Mal Mö ‘, which translates to ‘Ground up maid. ‘ A millstone that was placed in 1538 can still be found on the town square today. [ 13 ] [ 14 ] [ 15 ] In the fifteenth century, Malmö became one of Denmark ‘s largest and most travel to cities, reaching a population of approximately 5,000 inhabitants. It became the most crucial city around the Øresund, with the german Hanseatic League frequenting it as a market, and was celebrated for its flourishing herring fishery. In 1437, King Eric of Pomerania ( King of Denmark from 1396 to 1439 ) granted the city ‘s arms : argent with a gryphon gules, based on Eric ‘s arms from Pomerania. The gryphon ‘s head as a symbol of Malmö extended to the entire province of Skåne from 1660. In 1434, a newfangled bastion was constructed at the beach confederacy of the town. This fortress, known today as Malmöhus, did not take its current imprint until the mid-16th hundred. several other fortifications were constructed, making Malmö Sweden ‘s most fortified city, but entirely Malmöhus remains .
Lutheran teachings bedspread during the sixteenth century Protestant Reformation, and Malmö became one of the foremost cities in Scandinavia to amply convert ( 1527–1529 ) to this Protestant denomination. In the seventeenth hundred, Malmö and the Skåneland region came under control of Sweden following the Treaty of Roskilde with Denmark, signed in 1658. Fighting continued, however ; in June 1677, 14,000 danish troops laid siege to Malmö for a calendar month, but were ineffective to defeat the swedish troops holding it. By the dawn of the eighteenth century, Malmö had about 2,300 inhabitants. however, owing to the wars of Charles XII of Sweden ( reigned 1697–1718 ) and to bubonic harass epidemics, the population dropped to 1,500 by 1727. The population did not grow much until the mod harbor was constructed in 1775. The city started to expand and the population in 1800 was 4,000. 15 years subsequently, it had increased to 6,000. [ 16 ]
Södergatan in 1913 in 1913 In 1840, Frans Henrik Kockum founded the workshop from which the Kockums shipyard finally developed as one of the largest shipyards in the world. The southern Main Line was built between 1856 and 1864 ; this enabled Malmö to become a center of manufacture, with major textile and mechanical industries. In 1870, Malmö overtook Norrköping to become Sweden ‘s third-most populous city, and by 1900 Malmö had strengthened this position with 60,000 inhabitants. Malmö continued to grow through the first half of the twentieth hundred. The population had swiftly increased to 100,000 by 1915 and to 200,000 by 1952 .
Malmö, 18 December 1914. All three scandinavian Kings on the same balcony. In 1914 ( 15 May to 4 October ) Malmö hosted the Baltic Exhibition. The large park Pildammsparken was arranged and planted for this big event. The russian contribution of the exhibition was never taken down, owing to the outbreak of World War I. On 18 and 19 December 1914, the Three Kings Meeting was held in Malmö. After a slightly disturb period ( 1905–1914 ), which included the adjournment of the Swedish-Norwegian Union, King Oscar II was replaced with King Håkon VII in Norway, who was the younger brother of the Danish King Christian X. As Oscar died in 1907, and his son Gustav V became the raw King of Sweden, the tensions within Scandinavia were still unresolved, but during this historical meet, the scandinavian Kings found inner understand, adenine well as a common note about remaining neutral in the ongoing war. Within sports, Malmö has by and large been associated with football. IFK Malmö participated in the first ever edition of Allsvenskan 1924/25, but from the mid-1940s Malmö FF started to rise, and ever since it has been one of the most big clubs within swedish football. They have won Allsvenskan 23 times in all ( as of February 2018 ) between 1943/44 and 2017 .
1970s and late [edit ]
By 1971, Malmö reached 265,000 inhabitants, but this was the vertex which would stand for more than 30 years. [ citation needed ] ( Svedala was, for a few years in the early 1970s, a part of Malmö municipality. ) By the mid-1970s Sweden experienced a receding that hit the industrial sector specially hard ; shipyards and manufacturing industries suffered, which led to high unemployment in many cities of Skåne. Kockums shipyard had become a symbol of Malmö as its largest employer and, when shipbuilding ceased in 1986, confidence in the future of Malmö plummeted among politicians and the public. In addition, many middle-class families moved into one-family houses in surrounding municipalities such as Vellinge Municipality, Lomma Municipality and Staffanstorp Municipality, which profiled themselves as the suburb of the upper-middle class. By 1985, Malmö had lost 35,000 inhabitants and was down to 229,000. [ citation needed ] The swedish fiscal crises of the early on 1990s exacerbated Malmö ‘s decline as an industrial city ; between 1990 and 1995 Malmö lost about 27,000 jobs and its economy was badly strained. however, from 1994 under the leadership of the then mayor Ilmar Reepalu, the city of Malmö started to create a new economy as a centre of culture and cognition. Malmö reached bottom in 1995, but that same year marked the beginning of the massive Öresund Bridge road, railroad track and burrow plan, connecting it to Copenhagen and to the railing lines of Europe. The new Malmö University opened in 1998 on Kockums ‘ former dockside. far renovation of the now disused south-western harbor followed ; a city architecture exposition ( Bo01 ) was held in the area in 2001, and its buildings and villas form the core of a new city district. Designed with attractive waterfront vistas, it was intended to be and has been successful in attracting the urban middle-class. Since 1974, the Kockums Crane had been a landmark in Malmö and a symbol of the city ‘s manufacture industry, but in 2002 it was disassembled and moved to South Korea. In 2005, Malmö gained a new landmark with completion of Turning Torso, the tallest skyscraper in Scandinavia. Although the transformation from a city with its economic base in manufacture has returned increase to Malmö, the newfangled types of jobs have largely benefited the middle and upper classes. In its 2015 and 2017 reports, Police in Sweden placed the Rosengård and the Södra Sofielund/Seved zone in the most severe class of urban areas with gamey crime rates. [ 17 ] [ 18 ]
