A beautiful courtyard. The hall where the Nobel laureates are awarded is Gothic-restrained. No gold or glitter. Simple and functional. Great view of Stockholm from the waterfront.
The Town Hall is of interest: major political negotiations were held there, and Nobel Prize laureates are honored here every year. The courtyard of the town hall is open to the public, and you can enter the building itself with a guide, there is an observation deck at the top.
A very interesting, iconic place in Sweden. It is a pity that they are allowed inside only in groups, with a guide from the Town Hall. You can buy something to remember you by at the souvenir shop. Beautiful view from the waterfront to Stockholm.
An interesting building from the point of view of architecture, but I was more fascinated by the fact that I photographed a swan against the background of the town hall)
It's a beautiful place. The town hall can only be accessed with a guided tour. But a lot of interesting things can be seen: beautiful halls, the place of work of the Swedish authorities, the ceiling in the form of an inverted Viking rook and much more. There is an opportunity to climb to the observation deck.
Modest, but tasteful.
As is customary among the Swedes, the building was built according to all the requirements of proportion and harmony, without punctual adherence to any architectural style and excesses.
But they say that all the bricks, of which, like the Swedes, are made according to traditional technologies, that is, unevenly and with varying degrees of firing, which gives a unique flavor...
I was there a long time ago, in my school years. Cool town hall, I advise you to visit. If I'm not mistaken, that's where the King of Sweden awards the Nobel Prizes.

It is also a beautiful and significant building, but it is better to see it, including as a tour inside the Town Hall.
