I try to think of Swedish examples, but they aren’t that many or prominent.
My hometown of Luleå has some kind of local legislation against naming streets after people, I know there’s occasionally been petitions that were shot down on that basis.
I know Salming had a street by the arena in Kiruna named after him posthumously, and an ice statue in his likeness at the Ice Hotel, which must have melted at this point:
Stefan Liv has also been honored with a street in Jönköping. I can imagine that locally there are even more streets named after athletes.
We’re kind of bad at honoring our greats in Sweden, in relation to Canada and the US. The Swedish Hockey HoF ceremonies are a joke, I know Salming complained that it was a bit of a waste of time when he received the honors. Got some kind words, flowers and a round of applause from the audience before a Djurgården game, iirc, after HHoF induction, jersey retirement and statue revelation in Toronto.
Piteå — neighboring town of Luleå — does sport a “walk of fame” on their main street, with local celebrities honored.
The hockey players honored with tiles are Tomas Holmström, Lars Lindgren, Mikael Renberg and Mattias Öhlund.
