This is a list of alleged sightings of unidentified flying objects or UFOs in Sweden.
A Swedish man claims that he as a schoolboy in 1944 or 1945 together with a friend had a close encounter with a saucer-like object flying about only 5-10 metres above the ground near a small village in Östergötland. The object was described as silver-coloured and making a whizzing sound. It briefly stood still before moving on to above a hilltop were it again stood still before lowering down close to the ground. After the object had elevated and disappeared the witnesses examined the place at the hilltop and found the place was burned and still glowing with ember. [1]
Two spheroid-shaped, silver-grey objects were seen flying at about 200 meters height over northern Gotland. The objects were described as being about 25 meters in diameter, having slowly rotating details and a constant red glow on the bottom surface. An examining expert of the Swedish military claimed that the objects were research balloons, but this conclusion has been questioned as there was no wind at the time of the observation that could move balloons and that the objects were observed moving in identical manoeuvres.

In 1968 strange impressions were found on the ground in a remote place outside of Borås. The impressions were described as two triangluar shapes which emitted a maladorous smell from a fluid. One of the triangles had about 15 centimeter marks in each corner of the triangle. The fluid was examined by laboratory experts who could not explain what the fluid was. [3]
