Strandvägen – a richly illustrated book about life along Lomma’s oldest street

Strandvägen in Lomma is part of the old road between Malmo and Helsingborg. It runs close to the sea and is lined by a settlement that emerged largely in the second half of the 19th century. The history of this street is also the story of Lomma’s development in the last 150 years. A book that puts today’s Lomma into perspective and provides inspiration for new local projects. All societies and people, gain from knowing their own history. Knowledge of the past helps us not to repeat old mistakes, makes us deferential to other people’s sacrifices and can also show the way to new opportunities. The opposite – a lack of a sense of history – is stupefying and sometimes even dangerous.
