City walk: labour movements and social movements in Malmö and Möllevången

Malmö is in many ways the heart and birthplace of the Swedish Labour movement, but it is also a place where many other social movements and activists challenged injustices and lived their lives. On this walk, we get to know the cool anarchists at Svarta Katten, the success story that made the People’s Park an important tool of organisation as well as leisure during 100 years, the “herring Bolsheviks” protesting the lack of food during World War II and many other big and small stories from the long radical history of Malmö and Möllevången.

The guided city walk is organised by the Institute for studies in Malmö’s history and the Institute for Urban Research, Malmö University. The guides speak English.
