About Sannegården
Where to stay in Sannegården
Where you base yourself shapes the visit — here's the character of each area.
The waterfront draws its own stays. Sannegården holds rooms among the converted yards of western Gothenburg, a quieter base near Eriksbergs Kulturbåtshamn and Sjömanstornet than the crowded centre of the city across south-western Sweden. If you want the old harbour at the door, this western quarter suits, the rest of Gothenburg an easy crossing away by tram and ferry.

About Sannegården
What are the main landmarks in Sannegården?
Sjömanstornet rises over the district. The seafarers' tower marks this western quarter of Gothenburg, while Eriksbergs Kulturbåtshamn keeps its old boats along the water and Lundby nya kyrka and S:t Johanneskyrkan hold the parishes nearby across south-western Sweden. Sjöfartsmuseet Akvariet and the Radiomuseet, Göteborg sit within easy reach.
The old harbour gives the place its character.
What is the history of Sannegården?
Shipbuilding shaped this corner. Sannegården grew with the yards along the western waterfront of Gothenburg, the trade that the Varvshistoriska föreningen i Göteborg keeps alive and the Pennsylvaniamonumentet recalls from the old harbour years across south-western Sweden. The parish of Lundby gamla kyrka long held the older country inland.
The cranes have since given way to homes.
Where is Sannegården?
The city wraps around it. Sannegården occupies the western part of Gothenburg, one quarter among the city's districts in south-western Sweden, set in the old shipyard country where Eriksbergs Kulturbåtshamn lines the water and the neighbouring Lundby quarter of the kommun spreads inland. The district stays inside the city.
