210722 ”It’s spy ware, a Spy Whale, a Spy Fish!”

In this episode I set out to eat lunch at a newly opened vegan cafe, but gets sidetracked by an intriguing island and a medieval museum. But the cafe turns out to be great, but I have some trouble when I try to find where they sell the tickets at Kulturhuset… And let’s not talk about the conundrum of trying to get home when they closed the bridge I was going to cross.

Helgeandsholmen is a small island in central Stockholm, Sweden. It is located north of Stadsholmen, and east of Strömsborg, with which, together with Riddarholmen, it forms Gamla stan, the old town of Stockholm. Helgeandsholmen contains the Riksdag Building and the Museum of Medieval Stockholm, and is connected to neighbouring islands through three bridges: Riksbron, Stallbron, and Norrbro. The terrace in the eastern end, called Strömparterren ("The Stream Parterr"), is a public park with a restaurant dating from 1832, while the flight of stairs leading down to the water is from 1807–1810.

The quay west of the Riksdag Building once surrounded Sweden's central bank Sveriges Riksbank and was thus named Bankkajen ("The Bank Quay"), while the streets on southern and northern sides are called Norra/Södra Helgeandstrappan ("The Northern/Southern Helgeand Stairs"), all of them named in 1925.
