Engelbrektsplan

Engelbrektsplan, Pedestrian zone in Östermalm, Stockholm, Sweden

Engelbrektsplan is a pedestrian zone in Östermalm with open areas, pathways, and seating alongside Humlegården park, functioning as a neighborhood focal point. The square is surrounded by shops and cafes where visitors can eat and browse during a visit.

The site emerged after the Landbyska brewery was demolished in 1884, then became a terminal station for Djursholmsbanan trains until 1960. When train service ended, it transformed into the open public plaza it is today.

The name, adopted in Stockholm's 1885 street-name revision, belongs to the category of patriotic and historical names and refers to the medieval rebel Engelbrekt Engelbrektsson. Since summer 2011 the street-art group The Hyenas has installed works on the square, linking it to the nearby Stureplan art scene.

Engelbrektsplan sits at the southern end of Engelbrektsgatan, next to Humlegården park. The square is paved and level, with no steps between the street and the open area. The terminus of Djursholmsbanan and Roslagsbanan was here until 1960, so the surrounding streets are laid out for through traffic rather than for parking.

The railway company's station clock, made by Linderoths urfabrik, still hangs on the facade of the 1914 corner house at Engelbrektsplan 2. The building also housed the Sture-Teatern cinema, which opened on 3 November 1915 and closed on 7 October 2001.
