A short way up the River Ure from the city is the village of Baggböle.
In the 19th century this was the scene of a huge water-powered sawmill responsible for cutting down large swathes of woodland.
Now, the word “Baggböleri” is a synonym for reckless deforestation in Swedish.
Starting in the 1970s, this became somewhere to appreciate foliage as an arboretum was planted along the left bank of the river.
