Vännäs municipality, Vännäs kommun, is in Västerbotten in northern Sweden, with around 9,000 inhabitants, half of them in Vännäs itself.
Understand
[edit]In 1891, the northern main railway got a station 4 kilometres from the village of Vännäs, and a new settlement known as Vännäs grew around the station. To avoid confusion, the old village was renamed Spöland and now Vännäsby. In 1896, a rail connection to Umeå was made.
