City info
Tampere was founded as a market place on the banks of the Tammerkoski channel in 1775 by Gustav III of Sweden and four years later Tampere was granted full city rights. Tampere grew as a major market town and industrial centre in the 19th century. The town's industrial nature in the 19th and 20th centuries gave it the nickname Manchester of the North, Manse for short (in Finnish). Tampere's sporting scene is driven mainly by two sports, ice hockey and football. The Finnish ice hockey museum, and the first ice hockey arena to be built in Finland, the Hakametsä arena, are both located in Tampere. Football is the number one sport in Tampere, even hosting some of the preliminaries for the 1952 Summer Olympics. Tampere boasts over 100 football teams alone. The Tampere region has two universities and three polytechnics totaling 40.000 students. Largest universities are the University of Tampere and Tampere University of Technology.
