Stockholm City Hall is the great brick landmark on the waterfront, a national-romantic building of the 1920s crowned by a tall tower topped with three golden crowns. Inside, the Blue Hall hosts the Nobel Prize banquet each December and the shimmering Golden Hall glitters with millions of mosaic tiles, seen on guided tours.
What you actually see
- The Golden Hall - the walls covered in eighteen million gold and glass mosaic tiles.
- The Blue Hall - the great brick hall of the Nobel banquet.
- The tower - the climb up for a panorama over the city and water.
- The waterfront - the building on its harbour setting with the three crowns above.
When to go
Year-round for the guided tours of the halls; the tower is open in the warmer months for the view. Tours run to a timetable, so check ahead.
Honest expectations
The interior is seen only on a guided tour at set times, so plan around them. The tower is a separate seasonal ticket. It is a landmark and a tour rather than a wander-at-will attraction, but the halls genuinely impress.
Nearby
Gamla Stan and the Old Town are across the water; the central station is a short walk.
