What To Expect
Marten Trotzigs grand
Your journey begins at Mårten Trotzigs Gränd, a place that never fails to surprise visitors with its tiny scale. Tucked away in Stockholm’s Old Town, this charming alley connects Västerlånggatan and Järntorget with Prästgatan and Tyska Stallplan. At its narrowest point—just 90 centimeters wide and reached by 36 descending steps—it is officially the narrowest street in the city, offering a quaint and memorable start to your walk.
Emerging from the tight passageway, you’ll arrive at Järntorget, also known as the Iron Square. As one of the oldest squares in Stockholm’s Old Town, it has been a lively hub for centuries. Historically a center for trade, today it remains a vibrant meeting point where locals and visitors alike gather to enjoy its atmosphere and browse nearby shops and cafés.
