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.

Stockholm has over 70 museums and cultural institutions spread between its medieval city center and its islands accessible within a few minutes by tram. The city has preserved its original buildings while developing modern exhibition spaces that cover a thousand years of Scandinavian history. Visitors can spend a day walking from the cobbled streets of Gamla Stan, lined with 17th-century merchant houses, to the contemporary galleries of Fotografiska housed in former port warehouses. The permanent collections cover diverse fields. The Vasa Museum displays a 69-meter (226 feet) warship recovered intact after three centuries underwater. The Royal Palace opens its state apartments and treasury to the public. Djurgården Island features several major sites, including Skansen open-air museum with 150 historic buildings from across Sweden, the Modern Art Museum with works by Dalí and Picasso, and ABBA The Museum dedicated to the band that sold 400 million records. The Nobel Museum chronicles the history of the Nobel Prize since 1901 with objects belonging to over 900 laureates.
