It is also one of the oldesttowns in the country and was an important town in Medieval Sweden. When the steelindustry developed in Sweden, in the 13th century, Västerås became an important porttown, situated on Lake Mälaren which is connected to the Baltic Sea.During the industrialisation era in the 19th and 20th centuries, Västerås againdeveloped a lot and several companies were started here: ABB (originallly called asASEA) and H&M probably being the most internationally well-known ones. Today,Västerås is a nice place to visit.SwedishKronavs.EURO
