Ferries cross the Oresund strait between Helsingborg and the Danish town of Helsingor in about twenty minutes - the narrowest point of the sound separating Sweden from Denmark. About 104,300 people live in Helsingborg in Skane. The Karnan tower, a medieval fortification rising 35 metres above the harbour, is the only remaining part of a castle that once controlled the strait crossing.
Helsingborg changed hands between Denmark and Sweden multiple times before the Treaty of Roskilde assigned it permanently to Sweden in 1658. The city centre retains a mix of architectural styles, from half-timbered houses near the harbour to functionalist apartment blocks further inland. The H+ development area on former industrial land south of the centre is one of Sweden's larger urban regeneration projects.

The Sofiero Palace and its gardens, once a summer residence of the Swedish royal family, are open to the public and known for their rhododendron collection. The city's position on the Swedish Riviera coastline makes it a summer destination, with sandy beaches stretching south toward Landskrona.
The proximity to Copenhagen means that some residents commute across the strait by ferry. Accommodation in Helsingborg ranges from harbour-side venues to suburban guesthouses. The Oresund region functions as a cross-border labour and housing market.
