About Almby
Where to stay in Almby
Each area has its own feel; here's who each one suits.
Almby works as a close-in base. Holding the central-eastern part of Örebro kommun around Almby kyrka, the district keeps you near the core of Örebro while staying a touch quieter than the busiest inner streets, with Brickebergskyrkan a marker among its newer blocks. The reach is short.
You stay here for that balance of calm and access; the city centre lies close by, and neighbouring Skebäck holds the north-western side of Örebro County.
About Almby
What are the main landmarks in Almby?
A pair of churches gives the quarter its bearings. Almby kyrka gives the quarter its old parish anchor, while Brickebergskyrkan stands among the newer streets, the pair giving Almby more of its own identity than most of the residential edges of Örebro kommun. The centre is still close.
From here the core of Örebro lies a short way off, with neighbouring Skebäck across the city in Örebro County.
What is the history of Almby?
Almby began as a parish. Its church, Almby kyrka, marks the old country settlement that the growing city of central Sweden eventually reached and absorbed as Örebro spread east. The parish became a district.
Later building brought Brickebergskyrkan and the residential streets that filled the ground, drawing Almby fully into Örebro kommun alongside the other quarters of Örebro County such as Skebäck.
