Normalm: Beyond the Old Town
Description:
You can wander endlessly through the Old Town, and many tourists, coming to Stockholm, undeservedly forget its other areas: Normalm, Södermalm, Estermalm. Let’s fix this and get to know Stockholm City: the majestic Normalm!
What is he famous for? This is where Stockholm cider was born. This is where the Nobel Prizes are awarded. It was here that the second tallest church in Scandinavia grew. It was here that Vladimir Lenin bought a suit before going to Russia and leading a revolution there. But there were in the history of Normalm and tragic pages. Let’s talk about those times when Stockholm resembled one solid construction site, and how elms became a symbol of the struggle of local residents for their right to vote.
Normalm is also a royal district with the Royal Opera House, the Royal Drama Theatre and the Royal Gardens with unique fountains. Do you want to know why one is called “a lion surrounded by flower pots” and the other is called “a flower pot surrounded by lions”? Then let's take a walk around Normalm!
