Biography | Ola Källenius — Born in This Baltic Harbour Town
kevin
Sten Ola Källenius was born on 11 June 1969 in Västervik, a small harbour town on Sweden's Baltic coast.
The available biographies identify Västervik without establishing a particular house or maternity ward.
Sankt Petri church is a town landmark, not a documented birthplace.
The family moved to Malmö when he was about one, then through Sweden, Germany and Switzerland. Summers went to Scania, where his father's family kept a country house next to the farm his mother had grown up on.
At sixteen they settled in Stockholm, across the road from the Stockholm School of Economics. The harbour town itself was only the first coordinate.
Västervik remains the legal birthplace on every official biography Mercedes-Benz publishes. Visitors who come for him will find a working Swedish port, not a shrine.
