A continuous mural measuring 16 1/2 by 171 1/2 feet on the side of a three-story brick building sums up Kiruna's history. The left section honors the Sami, indigenous people who are nomadic reindeer herders. The middle shows the industrial side, including mine jobs (it even shows a strike that began in 1969). On the right, Kiruna expands its options, with a focus on tourism and space adventure as ways to attract revenue.
