Stockholm Pictures & Images

Stockholm in pictures: a city on islands, full of royal history. In Gamla Stan, the old town, colourful merchants’ houses line Stortorget square. Nearby stand the Royal Palace and Storkyrkan, the city’s oldest church. On the square, the Nobel Prize Museum tells the story of the prize and its winners. The Vasa Museum shows a warship that sank on its first voyage in 1628 and was raised 333 years later. The red-brick City Hall hosts the Nobel banquet. Just outside the city, Drottningholm Palace is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. All pictures come from places we have visited and described. Use the filters to browse by topic.
