Ryssgården

Slussen Stadsmuseet/Stockholm City Museum
The square Ryssgården at Slussen on Södermalm in Stockholm. The big building is Stadsmuseet. The Stockholm City Museum. Originally built back in 1663. Designed by the architect Nicodemus Tessin den äldre. The name Ryssgården comes from the fact that several hundred years ago, Russian merchants sold their goods here.

Muy buena vista de la ciudad. Me gusta mucho la segunda fotografía, con esos elementos repetitivos, que resultan tan atractivos en las fotografías.

Looks like the French doors are a later addition.

Yes, renovated a few times over the years is my guess.

Thanks. Both photos are panoramic images, stitched and cropped to my liking.

There's a lot of history in the roots of that building.
