Kiruna

There is a promotional film for Kiruna that starts with “Kiruna – it’s not the end of the world – it’s way beyond,” which is telling for the municipality. With a mix of wit and factual reality, Kiruna is not in between; Kiruna is high up in space and far down under the ground, infinite light and magical darkness, majestic mountain slopes and extensive views, challenging conditions and energizing meetings with nature, and above all, something you won't find anywhere else.
