Welcome to Kalmar nation in Uppsala 🌈

The small nation with the big heart

We’ve made the student life a bit more joyful since 1663. The nation is ran by volunteering students, led by our full-time employed curators. Getting involved at a nation is something you won’t regret, because there is no better way to meet new people and familiarize with the student life in Uppsala! Besides the day-to-day operation, there are a hundred “ämbetsmän” who all make up an important part of the organization, for examples within the restaurant, as nation photographers or the nation chaplain. We also manage a number of student houses and grants.
