Kiruna's Radical Urban Shift: Mining's Toll
Update: 2025-12-29
Description
In the heart of Swedens Arctic Circle, the city of Kiruna is undergoing a monumental transformation due to the expansion of the worlds largest iron ore mine. The project, which began in 2004, involves relocating thousands of residents and moving the historic Kiruna Church. Despite the challenges, including tensions with reindeer herders and environmental rules, the new city center promises to be a significant player in Europes critical minerals push, potentially bringing in more EU funding and support.
