How many municipalities can say they’ve witnessed the birth of a sport? Sollentuna kommun can. Right here in this vibrant municipality, history was made on September 28, 1985. It was then that Sweden played Finland in the world’s first-ever international floorball match. Sollentuna kommun is a place where history seamlessly blends with a modern, dynamic spirit. Established in 1863 as part of a local government reform, its roots run deep, echoing the ancient boundaries of Sollentuna Parish from the 12th century. For centuries, this area was primarily rural. However, the arrival of the railway between Uppsala and Stockholm in 1866 transformed Sollentuna kommun. Five of its eight districts sprouted around these railway stations, their growth fueled by the iron horse that connected them to the bustling capital. Sollentuna kommun is more than just a suburb of Stockholm. It’s a vibrant tapestry woven from a rich historical past and a forward-thinking present. It’s a testament to the enduring spirit of this region, where echoes of Vikings and kings mingle with the excitement of a floorball match and the promise of a bright future.
