Stortorget Östersund
Stortorget
The central square and pedestrian district of Östersund, lined with shops and restaurants. In summer it is the main venue of the Storsjö Festival.
Stortorget is the heart of the city centre. It connects to pedestrian streets such as Prästgatan and is lined with cafés, restaurants and shops, ideal for sampling Jämtland cheese and local dishes. Each year at the turn of July and August, Storsjö Festival, one of the largest city music festivals in Northern Europe, takes place around the square, when accommodation is tight and prices rise. Within a few minutes' walk of the square are the Town Hall and the lakeside harbour.
