Filipstad is a locality and the seat of Filipstad Municipality, Värmland County, Sweden with 6,022 inhabitants in 2010.Filipstad was granted city privileges in 1611 by Charles IX of Sweden.
After a major fire destroyed forest and town in 1694, Filipstad lost its privileges, as it was believed the remaining forest would not be sustainable if the town were to be rebuilt.The local government acts of 1862 made the very privilegies obsolete, but the title stad (city) remained in use until the municipal reform of 1971.At Filipstad, there is Klockarhöjdenmasten, a 330 metres tall guyed mast used for FM/TV-broadcasting.
