Today the city counts a population of 11,930 souls (1996). The city is located in the crossing between the two railways between Ludvika-Västerås and Avesta (Krylbo)-Örebro, in the heart of the historic Bergslagen region rich in copper and iron ore. There has been mining activity in the Fagersta area since the 15th century but it wasn't organized until the 17th century and wasn't made a corporation until 1873, when Fagersta Bruks AB was founded.
