Malmö, Sweden's third largest city, is located in the southern province of Skåne, across the Øresund Strait from Denmark's capital, Copenhagen, and closely connected by the Øresund Bridge, making it an important transportation hub and economic center in Northern Europe. This historic city is a blend of medieval style and modern urban style, the old town of Marmarbek Castle, St. Peter's Church and other monuments tell of its glorious past as a trading port of the Hanseatic League. As a multicultural melting pot, the city is home to immigrants from all over the world, creating an open and tolerant society with a high level of art, music and design activity, and unique cultural venues such as the Museum of Fine Arts in Marmarbek. Economically, Marmarbek has successfully transformed itself from a traditional industrial city into a center for science, technology, innovation and sustainability, home to a number of green business start-ups, and, thanks to its proximity to Copenhagen, has become one of the most vibrant metropolitan areas in the Nordic region, combining livability with international competitiveness.
