Gåsgränd, Pedestrian zone in Gamla Stan, Stockholm, Sweden.

Gåsgränd connects Västerlånggatan, Stora Nygatan, and Lilla Nygatan streets through narrow cobblestone pathways within the old town district of Stockholm.

The alley received its name in the 15th century after Ragnhild Grågås, a resident who lived there around 1500, and was documented as Gragasenne grendh.

Local artisans and merchants maintain small shops along the pedestrian pathway, offering traditional Swedish crafts and regional specialties to passing visitors.

The pedestrian zone includes direct access to multiple transportation connections and remains open throughout the year for walking tours and shopping activities.

A small square called Gåstorget sits on the upper section of the alley, leading down to Munkbron square on the western waterfront.
