Stockholm at a glance
Stockholm is Sweden's capital, spread across fourteen islands where Lake Mälaren meets the Baltic Sea. People come for the medieval old town, museums on Djurgården and the waterfront. Summer days are very long, with more than 18 hours of daylight around midsummer.
Known for
Gamla Stan Gamla stan
The old town on Stadsholmen island, with medieval cobbled alleys, the Royal Palace and the Stortorget square.
Vasa Museum Vasamuseet
Museum on Djurgården built around the warship Vasa, which sank on her maiden voyage in 1628. It is the only almost fully intact 17th-century ship ever salvaged.
Skansen
Sweden's oldest open-air museum and zoo, on a hill on Djurgården, opened in 1891 to show how people lived across Sweden before industrialization.
Stockholm City Hall Stockholms stadshus
National Romantic building by Ragnar Östberg on Kungsholmen, completed in 1923, with a 106 m tower. It is the venue of the Nobel Prize banquet.
Fika
The Swedish coffee break, usually with buns or pastries, taken at work, at home and in cafés across the city.
Getting there
From Stockholm Arlanda Airport (ARN), the Arlanda Express runs non-stop to Stockholm Central Station every 15 minutes. It takes about 18 minutes from Arlanda South (Terminals 2, 3 and 4) and 19 from Arlanda North (Terminal 5). SL commuter trains leave from Arlanda Central Station, between Terminals 4 and 5, and take about 38 minutes. Airport buses, including Vy Flygbussarna, stop at Terminals 4 and 5.
Getting around
Most public transport, including the metro, commuter trains, trams and buses, runs under SL, Stockholm's regional transit authority. The metro, opened in 1950, is known for its decorated stations.
When to go
June to August, when daytime highs average about 20 to 25 °C and the nights from late May to mid-July never get fully dark. Winters are cloudy and cold, with average temperatures of about −3 to −1 °C. Snow covers the ground 75 to 100 days a year, and late December has only about 6 hours of daylight.
Local tip
Taking the SL commuter train from Arlanda? An extra station fee applies at Arlanda Central Station on top of the normal SL fare.
