Eureka! I've found this one (6)

The Swedish Nightingale's place (5,4)

Archimedes, a native of the Greek city of Syracuse on the island of Sicily. When he was in the public baths one day he discovered the first law of Hydrostatics - that a body when immersed in a fluid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. In his excitement, forgetting to clothe himself, he rose from his bath and ran home shouting, “Eureka! Eureka!” (I have found it! I have found it!)

So the answer is SICILY

Jenny Lind
