Just west of the city centre, Helsingborg’s harbour was built in 1891 and its opening was attended by King Oscar II. It was a key shipping port up to the 1960s when the container terminal at Sydhamnen rendered it obsolete.

From the 1980s plans were put in place to revitalise the waterfront, and H99 here in the build up to the millenium was a housing fair showcasing cutting-edge residential developments that line the waterfront today
