Södra stadshuset, Historic building in Södermalm, Stockholm, Sweden

The stone building features a symmetrical facade with two wings extending toward Ryssgården square and a central entrance facing Götgatan street.

Architect Nicodemus Tessin the Elder designed the structure in 1662 as a trade office, but a fire in 1680 led to renovations by his son.

The building housed the Russian Orthodox Church services from 1748 to 1846 in its northern section, which was formerly an anatomical theater.

Since 1937, the Stockholm City Museum occupies the premises, offering exhibitions about the city's history through artifacts and documents.

The cellar section operated as a popular tavern from 1680 to 1849, where guests including poet Carl Michael Bellman gathered for social events.
