Lindsborg celebrates the rich heritage of its humble Swedish beginnings with a year long calendar of events. Founded in 1869, poor Swedish farmers migrated to the present town site that reminded them of their homeland. The Lutheran faith is apparent today with the presence of Bethany College, a strong community partner. You can experience the Wild Dala Horse Tour, on a stroll through our quaint downtown. A variety of shops specializing in Swedish foods, crafts, and imports are sprinkled throughout the business district. To those wishing to spend some extra time in town, our overnight accommodations are charming as well.
There are over 60
practicing artists in the community. Galleries and studios, the most famous of which, the Sandzen Gallery, can be found amid well maintained neighborhoods. These artists are always happy to open their doors to a preview of their work. Come see us -- Lindsborg, Little Sweden USA
