The City of Trollhättan is located in Västra Götalands County in southwest Sweden. The falls, locks and the river Göta älv that runs right through the heart of the city gives Trollhättan a scenic location close to water and beautiful nature.

In terms of character, Trollhättan is a proud city with great ambitions! Trollhättan has a strong tradition of innovation and manufacturing industry, not least within mobility. Saab was first with its serially produced Turbo, and now other companies are stepping forward to develop the electric cars and mobile solutions of the future.

Trollhättan is also in many ways the heart of the Swedish film industry as Film i Väst, one of the leading film companies in Scandinavia, has its main office and studios in the city.

Welcome to a city bursting with energy and a unique ability to build and grow!
