An important spot
This is the most important and central square on the island of Sodermalm in Stockholm. There are shops and public services, as well as plenty of places to eat - cafes, Asian restaurants, French and Italian, and more. It's amazing to see how the ambiance of the square changes between winter and summer: it's either full of life, water, trees and children, or empty with snow on the skeletons of the trees. On one side there's a large building containing a library, cinema and gym. On the other side is the market (Sodermalm Saluhall) which, together with the markets of Hotorget and Ostermalm, is one of the most popular in Stockholm.
In the centre of the square is an area that is frozen as an ice rink in winter. You can also see a monument in honour of Anna Lindth, a politician who was assassinated in 2003. On the side of the street is Gotgatan subway station, opened in 1933.
