Overview

VARVSSTADEN Borta Men Inte Glömd - Malmös Maritima Arv Redan på 1300-talet bidrog Malmös strategiska läge vid Öresund till stadens starka tillväxt som ett betydande handels- och maritimt nav. Grundandet av Kockums Mekaniska Verkstad år 1840 markerade stadens framväxt som tillverkningscentrum. På Kockums producerade man allt från konsumtionsvaror och jordbruksverktyg till järnvägsvagnar, stora lastfartyg och militära fartyg, inklusive världens första kärnkraftsdrivna isbrytare. Oljekrisen på 1970-talet ledde till en industriell nedgång som så småningom sporrade Malmös omvandling, driven av betydande infrastrukturprojekt som Citytunneln och Öresundsbron mellan Sverige och Danmark - men också Västra Hamnen, skyskrapan Turning Torso, Malmö Högskola och Hyllie. Fotografierna i denna bok visualiserar en del av de sista relikerna och ruinerna av Malmös en gång stolta industriella historia, som givit plats åt en ny, ljus framtid. VARVSSTADEN Gone but not forgotten - Malmö's Maritime Legacy Already in the 14th century, Malmö's strategic location by the Øresund Strait contributed to the city's strong growth as a significant trade and maritime hub. The founding of Kockums Mekaniska Verkstad in 1840 marked the city's emergence as a manufacturing center. At Kockums, everything from consumer goods and agri- cultural tools to railway carriages, large cargo ships, and military vessels, including the world's first nuclear-powered icebreaker, was produced. The oil crisis of the 1970s led to an industrial decline, which eventually spurred Malmö's transformation, driven by significant infrastructure projects such as the City Tunnel and the Øresund Bridge between Sweden and Denmark - as well as the Västra Hamnen neighborhood, the Turning Torso skyscraper, Malmö University, and the Hyllie district. The photographs in this book visualize some of the last relics and ruins of Malmö's once proud industrial history, which have given way to a new, bright future.
