Step into a side of Uppsala that is rarely seen and often forgotten, as you explore the darker chapters of the citys past. This guided walk takes you through narrow back alleys and among historic buildings, revealing stories of hardship, cruelty, and societal struggles that shaped the city. Learn about the lives of the marginalized, including those affected by the black death, legal prostitution, and the harsh realities of correction houses. Discover the influence of powerful liquor barons and the hidden history of nineteenth century brothels as you walk through streets that once bore witness to these events.

The journey continues to more challenging aspects of Uppsala’s history, including a visit to the site of the Swedish Institute for Racial Biology, where forced sterilization and lobotomy operations took place during the twentieth century. Explore how legal and social restrictions affected the lives of women in the city and uncover the historical roots of systemic inequalities. This tour offers a unique and thought-provoking perspective on Uppsala, guided by an authorized city expert who brings the citys hidden past vividly to life, revealing a side of the city you will never forget.
