Falun is a historic city located in central Sweden, serving as the capital of Dalarna County. The city is perhaps best known for its UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Great Copper Mountain and its historic mine (Falu Gruva), which operated for over a millennium until 1992. This mine played a crucial role in Sweden's economic development and significantly influenced the region's cultural heritage.
The distinctive red paint known as "Falu rödfärg," derived from the mine's copper deposits, became a symbol of traditional Swedish architecture and is still widely used today. Beyond its industrial heritage, Falun is a cultural center with strong traditions in folk music, traditional crafts, and winter sports, having hosted several FIS Nordic World Ski Championships. The city maintains a balance between preserving its historical significance and functioning as a modern administrative and educational center.
