Bourse of Göteborg, Exchange building in Gustaf Adolf Square, Gothenburg, Sweden

The Bourse of Göteborg stands as a Neoclassical municipal structure on the north side of Gustaf Adolf Square, featuring a ballroom within its premises.

Local merchants collected funds for the construction, and King Oscar I laid the cornerstone in June 1844, leading to its completion in December 1849.

The Gothenburg Municipal Council has held its meetings in this building since January 1863, establishing it as a center of local governance.

The building underwent an extensive renovation from autumn 2014 to early 2019, during which the municipal council temporarily relocated its operations.

Despite its Swedish name 'Börsen' often being translated as Stock Exchange, the building functioned primarily as a commercial trading center without royal patronage.
