Stockholm City Hall is a building of the Municipal Council of the city of Stockholm. It is located on the eastern tip of the island of Kungsholmen, close to the northern shore Riddarforda and opposite the islands of Riddarholmen and Södermalm. The building houses offices and meeting rooms, as well as state rooms and luxurious restaurant Stadshuskallaren. City Hall is considered one of the main attractions of Stockholm, since it is here that hosts the annual Nobel Prize banquet. It is worth noting that to get into the hall is only possible as part of the tour, but independent visitors will be able to pass only the courtyard of City Hall.

In 1907, the city council decided to build a new home for the City Council of Stockholm. It was held an architectural competition, won by Ragnar Österberg and his main rival Carl Westman commissioned the construction of the courthouse. In operation Österberg significantly changed its initial project, using the elements of the project Westman, for example, a tower. Construction took twelve years, and it took nearly eight million red bricks. The building was opened June 23, 1923, exactly to the day of the coronation quatercentenary Gustav Vasa in Stockholm.

Stockholm City Hall is considered one of the most outstanding examples of Swedish national romanticism in architecture. The unique location overlooking the Riddarford was the inspiration for the construction of the central motif - a comparison of urban architecture and water, which is also a feature of the urban landscape of Stockholm as a whole. Style Town Hall is a fine example of the eclectic, absorbing the massive, austere, Nordic construction of brick and playful elements of Eastern and Venetian architecture.

Small park, divided between the city hall and the shore of Lake Mälaren, is decorated with works of famous sculptors. To the south-east of City Hall stands a twenty-meter monument dedicated Engelbrecht Engelbrektssonu, leader of the biggest popular uprising in Sweden.
