Östermalm Market Hall, Market hall in Östermalm district, Stockholm, Sweden.
Östermalm Market Hall is a market hall in the Östermalm district of Stockholm, a brick building with a distinctive star-shaped floor plan. Inside, about 18 vendors sell fresh produce, meats, fish, and traditional Swedish food products.
The market hall opened in 1888, designed by architects Isak Gustaf Clason and Kasper Salin. Following extensive renovations completed in 2020, the building gained modern features while keeping its original layout.
Many vendors come from families that have sold food here for generations, keeping Swedish cooking traditions alive. Customers can talk directly with them and learn how to prepare local specialties.
The market is open on weekdays, with shorter hours on Saturday, and some restaurants stay open later in the evening. Plan your visit during daytime hours when the selection is full and it's less crowded.
The building has an unusual star-shaped floor plan that sets it apart from typical rectangular market halls. This design creates multiple small corners that give the place an intimate and manageable feel.
