Helsingborg - Town Hall
At the lower end of Stortorget in Helsingborg is a statue (by J. Börjesson, 1901) of the Swedish general Count Magnus Stenbock (1664-1717), erected to commemorate his victory over the Danes to the north of Helsingborg in 1710. Opposite it stands the neo-Gothic Town Hall (1870), with a 70m/230ft high tower and stained glass windows depicting events in the history of the town.
