Medborgarplatsen

Medborgarplatsen, Square in Södermalm, Stockholm, Sweden

Medborgarplatsen, often called Medis, is a broad public square on Södermalm in Stockholm. It is paved and open, with a library on one corner and a 17th-century palace on another, and it connects to nearby streets and a metro station.

The square took shape in the late 1850s with the arrival of the railway and the building of Stockholm South Station. In 1933, an underground tram station opened nearby, and in 1995 an entrance was added onto Björns trädgård.

The name Medis is used by locals for everyday errands and gatherings, and the square often hosts speeches and marches, especially on May Day. In winter, a small ice rink appears, while in summer benches take its place.

The square is easy to reach on foot or by metro, and its central location makes it a handy meeting point. Visit on a weekday morning for a quieter look, or check for events that may fill the space.

In 2001, the square hosted Hammarby Fotboll's first Allsvenskan victory in front of a large crowd. The metro station was not directly connected to the square at first but to the nearby Folkungagatan.
