Just a short walk from the mural in yesterday's post, this is Kristinehovs Malmgård on Södermalm. Or at least the two wings. I did take a photo of the main building, but it was too messy for my taste, so I will give that view a go another day. But there is a good view at their website. Kristinehov was built as a Summerhouse back in 1790 for Georg Fredrik Diedrichson. The architect was Petrus Serén. Since around a century, this is a hub for cultural history. Operated by twenty common-interest associations. They are financed mostly by contributions from the city and a couple of other organizations. So it is a busy place with focus on dance, music and much more. There are big dining halls here where you can have your wedding party like it is 1790 all over again!
It is surely very unique in its design style. Though low contrast, it is not messy to my eyes
ReplyDeleteNice no nonsense building from the past. I like that very much.

ReplyDeleteI am very interested in that fence. Never seen one exactly like it, and for some unknown reason I am interested in fences.
ReplyDeleteIt is called a gärdesgård Judith. Classic Swedish fence. I have a Flickr album about fences. I met a man years ago at the Tyresta Nationalpark who was building such a fence. I will try to find the photos and put a link here later today.
DeleteHere is a link to the album Judith.
ReplyDeleteSteffe thank you!!
