    Great looking building however it's so far away. Recommend you hire a segway or bike to get here. There is no access into the building as it's a residential building. There is a gallery and cafe nearby, which talks about the building but has no views or anything. Personally do not think it's worth th effort to go here.

    Magnificent. I love tall buildings and this one is a truly dizzying site whose top dissapears into low lying clouds above. Despite the windy, rainy, and cold weather, the site was spectacular to look at. The twisting design of the building is truly a work of art, and it's visible from all over the city. I was in awe of the stunning views from the top, and I hear the architecture inside is just as impressive. The residential apartments, offices, and conference rooms are all designed with the utmost attention to detail. The Turning Torso is a must-see attraction for anyone visiting Malmö, and I highly recommend adding it to your itinerary.

    This tower building of the Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava has been inaugurated in 2005. For now, it is the tallest building in whole Scandinavia. It is twisted around its axis for 90 degrees - as the underlying sculpture 'twisting torso'. There are bureaus and apartments within the building. A great example of modern architecture.

    Easy to purchase tickets, fun to see the top floor and observe out. They have multiple telescopes for specific viewing which is nice to look at the bridge. Served with coffee and a cookie. Informative short film to learn about the holding and architecture.

    Der zweithöchste Wolkenkratzer in Skandinavien. Erbaut durch einen spanischen Architekten. Empfunden nach einem verdrehten menschlichen Torso. Leider kann man nicht hinauf. Hat offenbar nur Büros und Wohnungen dort. Ist aber schon imposant. Ginge wieder hin.

    Ein absolutes Muss für Fans spannender Hochhäuser. Schon von Weiten ist dieses Wahrzeichen Malmös zu erkennen. Spannend, sich zu Fuß dem langsam zu nähern. Davor stehend schlicht beeindruckt von der gewagten Konstruktion. Und das Ganze in ein Wasserbecken gebaut. Drin wohnen möchte ich nicht, die Aussichten von den oberen Stockwerken werden beeindruckend sein. Dass Google meint, es sei bis 16:00 geöffnet, ist natürlich quatsch. Hier ist für uns Touris gar nichts geöffnet. Schade, hier wäre eine Sky Lounge genial und sicher gut besucht.

    The Turning Turso is Malmö's city identifier which can be seen from far away. It is located in the northern part of Malmö, close to the shore. The tower is located in a beautiful and trending part of Malmö, which is partly still under construction. To visit the tower I recommend to use the TT Galleria parking from Lidl, right next to the tower. Parking is free for one hour however be advised that for additional hours the parking payment system is confusing (the machines didn't work).

    Really nice & unique building, unfortunately the building was closed. Still a good walkaround the building just to see the architecturer. It was a really windy day as you can hear in the video. Can you pretty much see this building from anywhere. Read more at Raif & Vy Travel Blog.

    One of the most impressive buildings I have seen in my life. The breathtaking shape emulates the backbone of a person. Make sure you look at the building from the sea, but more important from the main road side where you can see the turning metal framework. Take the time to go to the boardwalk and enjoy the views of the Malmö bridge and the brave sea.

    Is one of the tourist attractions here in Malmö. If you're into modern architecture you may love this area. For people like me lovers of the old good buildings it's still a nice contrast to see. You can't go into the building but it is a nice experience. Just use comfortable shoes in Malmö you walk a lot 😊🌈🙌

    It is one of the tallest structures in the Scandinavian region and it is one the rarest designs in the world of architecture. The only thing is that you cannot enter into this as a visitor as it is a commercial and residential space.

    A must for fans of Architecture and Calatrava’s buildings. I followed this project from the beginning and it was really nice to finally see with my own eyes. Easy to get to with the local bus, just take Bus 8 from the central station in Malmö. The bus stop it’s called Turning Torso.

    I learned a lot about Sweden in my 3 and a half hours visiting my 63rd country. This was the coolest looking building I saw in all of Sweden. It makes for fun pictures.

    One of the best places to visit in Malmö. You should definitely visit this place for a closer look. Also you could see that tower anywhere from the city center as well. I would recommend to take the pictures from the beach side!

    Malmo's most well known building. Well at least that's what the locals told me 😅 I was fortunate enough to visit the turning torso on a day with clear skies (not very common during the winter season) and I absolutely loved it. Truly encompasses what modern architecture can achieve. I highly recommend you stop by if you're in the area.

    Such an interesting looking building. I'll surely check out the other buildings from the architect Santiago Calatrava. It's a conference building, probably unaccessible to the general public. Still a mandatory stop when in Malmö!

  • 5/5 leslie v. 1 year ago on Google
    I did not go inside but stood outside and marveled at the building's shape and construction. This structure can be seen from all points and even from the Oresund Bridge and Copenhagen on the other side. I liked going here because there were no other tourists despite this being an architectural marvel.

    Excellent example of early 21st Century Spanish architecture, in Mälmo, Sweden.

  • 4/5 Joakim R. 2 years ago on Google
    Great view over entire Malmö on a sunny day if you are up at the conference levels. Floor 53 and 54.

    Worth visiting the beach lookout and have a view of turning Torso. You have a nice walk way near the beach and a park too. I visited the place in Winter ❄️ You might find better spots to relax on days in late Spring and early Summer.

  • 4/5 Magic 2 years ago on Google
    Pretty construction, I always try to put on my tours.....there is a small museum at one of the top floor...

    Calatrava's jewel and gift to Sweden. I would not dare to say much other than it will stand the test of time, aesthetics come to pass, classics never. A powerful statement to the nature, aspiration and future of the city. It appeals to everyone, e v e r y o n e. Might be the reason I moved to Skane.

    This is the nicest building Malmö in my opinion. You really need to come close and don't just look at it from a distance. Only it is unfortunate that you can not enter the building, or that there aren't any cafés at the top. Such a missed opportunity on their part.

  • 4/5 Luke L. 6 months ago on Google
    One of the modern buildings in the area that was recently built in the past 20 years and then the residential housing started to grow in the area as time goes on. Now it is no longer an industrial area , but it strives with houses and family becoming a more livable area

  • 4/5 Nazmus S. 2 years ago on Google
    The area is close to the see and very windy. So it's more cold than other part of the city. I suggest to take proper clothes before you visit. Wlak through and enjoy the sea view.

    This is the tallest building in Scandinavia. Located nearby port side of Malmo. This is famous for it’s unique twisting architecture. Copenhagen can be seen from the top of the building.

  • 5/5 Simon L. 1 year ago on Google
    Always saw the photos from architecture textbook. Finally got to see this cool building in person. Hope there could be more detailed information displayed.

  • 5/5 Cyntia P. 1 year ago on Google
    Quite interesting skyscraper close to the Malmö Central Station. Maybe you would be surprised by the fact, that this skyscraper is the tallest building in Scandinavia! 🏙

  • 4/5 jaja 9 months ago on Google
    It's a cool place for taking instagram pictures, that's what I would call it. You can't go to the top so keep that in mind if you want to visit it. The surroundings are gorgeous and there is a beach nearby, walking distace.

  • 5/5 Abhishek A. 1 year ago on Google
    Quite a decent design of the building. Quite a landmark.

  • 5/5 Toralf S. 10 months ago on Google
    „Turning Torso“ is an architectural marvel, finished in 2005, that was designed by spanish-swiss architect Santiago Calatrava. Standing tall at 190 meters, this 90-degree twisting skyscraper holds the title of being the tallest building in Scandinavia. The construction is based on nine cubes, with six floors in each cube, means 54 floors. It's a true engineering masterpiece, so don't miss the chance to witness this iconic Santiago Calatrava landmark right here in Malmö.

  • 4/5 Ally R. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing architectural feature. Since it is a private residence, it is not possible to get inside, but it is a sight to behold. It is best to explore Malmo by bike, if you feel adventurous, take bus #8 (the number is wrong in their online schedule) from Central station where you buy the ticket for 1 or 24 hours. Make sure to ask the driver or one of the people in the fluorescent green vests to make sure you are taking it on the right direction, and get off on turning torso station (Bombagatan street) Walk towards the water for nice views of the bridge as well

    It is nice building to see (from the outside) I had no chance or need to use it. Recommended to view during a walk

  • 5/5 Hatcha T. 1 year ago on Google
