Lilla Blecktornet

Lilla Blecktornet is a two-story stone building in Södermalm with a garret beneath a broken hip-roof, showing typical features of late 18th-century Swedish architecture. The structure features a vaulted entrance that has been preserved through renovation work and remains visible today.

The building was constructed in 1787 for factory owner Niklas Sjöberg as a malmgård residence, designed by mason Johan Wilhelm Elies. Over two centuries it retained its structural form while serving different owners before undergoing renovation in the modern era.

The Stockholm City Museum designated Lilla Blecktornet with a blue classification, recognizing its exceptional architectural and historical value to the city.

The building currently houses the Dianova organization and is not regularly open to the public for visits. Visitors can admire the outer architecture and preserved entrance facade from the exterior.

An octagonal pleasure house once stood east of the main building and featured a ceiling mural by artist Anders Balck. This artwork now resides in Stockholm City Museum, documenting the artistic ambitions of its former residents.
