🇸🇪 Burlöv Municipality is a municipality in Skåne County in South Sweden in southern Sweden, just north of Malmö. Its seat is located in Arlöv, a community which for geographical and statistical purposes is seen as a part of Malmö (Malmö tätort).
The municipality is one of only a few in Sweden, and the only one in Scania, which still contains only the original municipal entity created from the old parish in 1863 (cf history of municipalities in Sweden) and has not been amalgamated. It is the second smallest municipality by area in the whole country (after Sundbyberg Municipality).
Geography The municipality has no forests, lakes, or streams, but has an abundance of high-voltage power grids, highways and railroads, as it is on the main line from Malmö to northern Sweden. Like the rest of Scania, much land is used for agriculture and there are several old farms, mills and other sights from the last centuries in the vicinity.
Urban areas There are three urban areas (also called a tätort or locality) in Burlöv Municipality, including Arlöv, which statistically is a part of Malmö. Malmö is mostly located in Malmö Municipality but a part of it sprawls into Burlöv Municipality.
Arlöv is an early industrialised town dominated by multi-storey apartment buildings, with a working class character. Its largest industry is Arlöv Sugar Factory, to which large amounts of sugar beets are transported from all around Scania.
Burlöv Center is located in Arlöv. It is a large shopping mall in the region.
Åkarp and Burlövs egnahem consist of detached house districts. They have a suburban character from where people commute to commercial centres and work within the metropolitan area of south-western Scania.
Transport The E6 and E22 highways meet in Burlöv, and share a route south towards Malmö. Burlöv is also located along the Southern Main Line, and is served by the Pågatågen commuter train system.
Culture and history Arlöv is located in the vicinity of agricultural fields, where the Old Church of Burlöv can be found, in the Burlöv Village. One of the oldest churches in Scania, it has mostly remained the way it was built in the 12th century, with its oldest parts concreted out of sandstone.
The coat of arms depict a sugar beet which was the chief industry for a while (e.g. the large Arlöv's Sugar Factory), and a star that symbolizes the Hvilan folk high school which was among the first group of folk high schools that were established in 1868.
