As its name suggests, Little Square is a small but charming square. The square was created in 1590 as a marketplace square. Shoppers would visit the square to buy daily household goods. Local maids would shop for meat, freshly baked bread, fish, and general groceries.

The square is paved with natural stones and invites locals and tourists to stay and enjoy the cozy atmosphere.

Little Square features old houses, boutique shops, outdoor cafes, friendly restaurants, and intimate bars. Visitors will enjoy shopping at the Swedish shops and exploring Scandi style fashion, and admire the centuries old houses in the surrounding area.

Little Square is known for its nightlife. Check out Drumbar, Malmo's only Scottish pub. Moosehead Bar often shows international sports. Mello Yello has a yellow outdoor seating area and is one of Malmo's most popular spots for eating, drinking, and people-watching.

Hedmanska Garden is located on the south side of the square. This half-timbered house dates to the 1590s. The house's courtyard is home to the Form/Design Center, which features a gallery and exhibitions.

Formargruppen is a must-see location for those keen on designer items. This gallery-shop belongs to a cooperative of about 20 professional craftsmen and artists who work in different materials: from clay, fabrics and woodwork to metals and gems.

Founded in 1983, the cooperative showcases locally-produced crafts: exclusive jewellery, handmade pottery and souvenirs, hand-painted textiles and many other interesting things. All of them are made in Sweden, in small quantities or as individual pieces, and are available for sale.

All of the Formargruppen artists are based in the region. Most days, the members take turns running the shop, so when visiting, you can meet one of the artists in person. If you come on a weekday, you will probably meet Tove Sporrong, the store manager. A varying number of guest members also show and sell their products here.

Formargruppen also hosts new exhibitions every month where visitors can meet artists and explore new art media of experimental, questioning and reflective nature. There are several exhibitions during spring and autumn. The exhibits are carefully selected and often represent a complement to what you find in the store.

Sodergatan is Malmo's main shopping street. The pedestrian-only street is home to a large variety of stores.

Visitors will find budget-friendly brands, high-end fashion, and vintage clothing. In addition, the cobblestone street is also home to many cafes, restaurants, and bars.

Sodergatan is also one of Malmo's oldest streets. It was first known as Sönnergatan in 1462. Over the years, the street has had many name changes until it was finally named Södergatan in 1842.

The buildings along Sodergatan feature architecture from the 16th century up to the present day. Flensburgska Huset was constructed on Sodergatan Street in the late 16th century. Flensburgska Huset is the oldest building in Malmo and features layers of white stone and red brick. Baltzar City is one of the street's newest buildings, dedicated in 2002.

Visitors to Sodergatan Street can also find the famous Optimistorkestern sculpture. This charming artwork shows a marching band led by a drummer.

Hennes & Mauritz AB, commonly known as H&M, is a famous Swedish multinational clothing-retail brand famed for its fast-fashion attire and accessories for men, women, teenagers and children.

If you are already acquainted with this trademark (a good chance that you are, considering that it has chains all over the world), you may want to use the opportunity and visit one of its stores on the home turf. The Malmo H&M shop is located in the historic building of the former Malmo Theatre, on Gustav Adolfs Torg.

One of the most famous buildings in the area, it dates back to the early 1800s, of which now only the façade remains, overlooking Gustav Adolf's square. The current façade came into being in 1882, following reconstruction after a fire.

The theater section was demolished when the property was converted into retail premises in 1961. H&M moved in here in 1973, promptly rebuilding the interior, whilst preserving the memory of the theater era, including the lyre decoration on the roof. Apart from H&M, the neoclassical building houses McDonald's and some other outlets, and is part of the Hansa mall.

Just as everywhere else, at H&M in Malmo you can find the trendiest, high-quality products at reasonable prices. Each section has a large area for different kinds of merchandise. Great service is also part of the setup, as usual.

Situated in the vibrant heart of Malmö, just a few steps away from the iconic Gustav Adolf Square, Hansa Shopping Center stands as a symbol of sophistication and modernity. Housed in a building with a unique history, this retail complex blends the city’s industrial past with contemporary shopping experiences. Located on Stora Nygatan, the site was once the home of Malmö Yllefabrik’s old textile factory, Doffeln, before being transformed into a retail destination in the 1960s.

Designed by the renowned Malmö architect Thorsten Roos, the building opened in 1963 as a branch of Nordiska Kompaniet (NK). When NK ceased operations in 1991, the premises underwent a major transformation, reopening in 1992 as Hansacompagniet, featuring around 40 stores. In 2003, a footbridge connected Hansacompagniet to the neighboring Citygallerian, forming a unified retail complex under the name Hansa.

Today, Hansa attracts a diverse range of visitors, offering a curated selection of fashion-forward stores like COS, & Other Stories, Monki, Weekday, and Odd Molly, alongside premium brands such as Gant, HOPE, and Lexington. Whether you’re looking for high-end apparel or trendy everyday wear, Hansa’s boutiques provide a wealth of options.

Hansa also caters to practical needs with stores like Apoteket and Systembolaget, the latter featuring a specialized wine cellar. For dining, the mall offers a delightful assortment of eateries, including the popular Oh Poke Restaurant and the well-known Espresso House Café, perfect for enjoying a quick snack or a relaxed meal with friends.

The mall’s three-level parking garage, accessible from Malmborgsgatan, ensures that visitors can easily access the shopping center by car. With its impressive mix of retail, dining, and services, Hansa Shopping Center is not just a place to shop, but a destination that reflects the dynamic spirit of Malmö itself.

Stora Nygatan is a bustling thoroughfare in Malmo, less of a main street but more in terms of shopping and art. The place brims with life, and not surprisingly so, given the density of retail shops, boutiques and art galleries here – like nowhere else in the city.

One of the main local residents is Hansa, Malmo's most central shopping mall. Inside you will find contemporary fashion brands like Hope, whose garments are often classics with a twist, and come with unique labeling – all pieces are marked with both men’s and women’s sizes, to encourage customers to explore the full assortment. Another notable outlet is HandArt Atelje & Butik, a new store with handmade Swedish arts and crafts. Here you can find jewellery made of silver, glass and plexiglass, textile, wood, ceramics, art prints, etc.

In addition to the retail galore, Stora Nygatan is also home to some of Malmo's finest cafés and restaurants to relax in after a tiresome shopping outing. It is also visually stunning, with buildings with stately facades and lots of cobblestones. During the warm season, festivals are often held on this street, inviting city residents to go outside and plunge into the party.
