While in Malmö for the Fourteenth International Conference on Health, Wellness & Society, you can see the Turning Torso!

The Turning Torso is Sweden's most talked-about building; you'll understand why when you see it up close. First, it's tall enough to force your neck all the way back to see the top (it is the tallest building in Scandinavia, after all). Second, it's twisted. The world's first "twisted skyscraper," this architectural masterpiece is fascinating from all angles.

Reaching 190 meters high, it combines residential, office, and conference space. Not a bad place to spend a day of work! Another bonus, it lies about 2.7 kilometers from Malmö Central Station and is easily reached by bus or car.

The skyscraper is based on a sculpture by designer, artist, and architect Santiago Calatrava called the "Twisting Torso," which featured in the competition brochure for the design and construction of Oresund Bridge. The cutting-edge building took four years to complete. Opened in 2005, it is supplied with locally produced renewable energy.
