Itinerary

1. Stortorget
Stortorget is Stockholm's heart and the Old Town's main square. With its iconic, colourful buildings, it is a must-see! Learn about the Stockholm Bloodbath, the Nobel Prize, and more as you stroll the narrow alleyways.
Duration: 10 mins
2. Prästgatan 13
The northernmost part of Prästgatan (Priest Street) was once known as Helvetsgränd (Hell's Alley). During the Middle Ages, it was thought that the part northwest of the church was a desecrated resting place for the dead. Storkyrkan (Stockholm Cathedral) is just around the corner; thus, this part of the street was called Hell.
Duration: 10 mins
3. Royal Palace
The Royal Palace is one of Europe's largest and most vibrant places. It is His Majesty the King's official residence, and essential parts of the monarchy's representation occur here. The Royal Palace is also the everyday workplace for the King and Queen. This makes the Royal Palace of Stockholm unique amongst Europe's royal residences.
Duration: 10 mins
4. Storkyrkan
The Stockholm Cathedral is one of Stockholm's oldest buildings. Inside the church is a wooden statue of St George and the Dragon from the 1400s. Festive events like royal weddings take place here. In 2010, Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel were married, following in the footsteps of her parents.
Duration: 10 mins
5. Jarnpojken
Järnpojken is the smallest (and most adorable!) statue in Sweden. The statue's official name is the Iron Boy; however, he is also known as the “Boy looking at the Moon”.
Duration: 5 mins
6. St. George & The Dragon Statue
St George and the Dragon symbolises the battle between Sweden (St. George) and Denmark (the Dragon) in the late 1400s. The sculpture is a bronze copy; the original is found inside Storkyrkan (Stockholm Cathedral) and is made of wood.
Duration: 10 mins
7. Brända Tomten
The square's name is Brända Tomten, which means “the brunt property.” Learn about the fires that have ravaged Old Town and the insurance needed to receive help from the fire department back in the day.
Duration: 5 mins
8. Marten Trotzigs grand
Mårten Trotzig is the narrowest alley in Stockholm. At its narrowest point, it is only 90cm wide. Some guidebooks claim it is the narrowest alley in Europe, but unfortunately, that is not true; there is one in Prague that is only 60cm wide. With all certainty, there are alleys in other European countries that are narrower than Mårten Trotzig.
Duration: 10 mins
9. Esglesia Alemanya
When Stockholm was founded in 1252, Birger Jarl, the founder, decided to invite the Germans to help him build the city. The German Church was built during the 1600s.
Duration: 10 mins
10. Riddarholmen Church
Riddarholmen, “The Island of Nobility”, complete with Stockholm’s oldest preserved building and a favourite view overlooking Lake Mälaren and the west side of Stockholm.
Duration: 10 mins
11. Stockholm City Hall
Enjoy a view of Stockholm City Hall, crowned by three golden crowns, also known as the symbol of Sweden. This is where one of Sweden's most famous banquets—the Nobel Banquet — is held on the 10th of December each year.
Duration: 5 mins
