EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in February 1902, showcases Storgatan, the main or great street of Piteå, a charming town nestled in the heart of Norrbotten County, Sweden. Storgatan, with its straight and longer stretch, is the central artery of the town, teeming with history and character. The image transports us back in time, as horse-drawn carts and pedestrians navigate the snow-covered cobblestones, while quaint wooden buildings line the street. Piteå, established in the late 13th century, has served as the seat of the municipality since 1624. Its rich history is reflected in the well-preserved architecture, which showcases a unique blend of traditional Swedish design and influences from neighboring Finland. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the daily life of this picturesque Swedish town over a century ago.
