Public square in Gamla Stan, Stockholm’s old town. Gamla Stan is one of the largest and best preserved medieval city centers in Europe. (Source: visitstockholm.com)
The Nobel Museum is housed in the former Stock Exchange Building.
Stortorgsbrunnen, an old well, sits in the center of Stortorget, Swedish for “big square.” The well marked the center of Stockholm: from here all distances in the city as well as the distances to other cities were measured.
After visiting the Nobel Museum, we had a hot WHITE chocolate (yes, white chocolate) at Kaffekoppen. The place is tiny. Additional seating is located downstairs in their historical cellar vault from the 1600s.

Wonderful photos 😊
Thanks. We really enjoyed Stockholm.
My son lived in Stockholm for two years. What a great city. I am so glad you enjoyed your visits to Sweden. Love the country. He now lives in Copenhagen so we are slowly exploring Denmark when we visit. Your photographs are wonderful and have brought back some fabulous memories. Gamla Stan is so atmospheric isn’t it?
My husband and I could picture ourselves living there. It is a wonderful city! Gamla Stan does have a lively atmosphere. And everyone was so friendly! While we were looking out across the water, a dapper gentleman stopped and welcomed us to his city. Great place. So glad you enjoyed the photos.
Looks lovely! x
It is. And everyone was very friendly and welcoming.
Beautiful!
I highly recommend a visit.
