Helgalunden

Helgalunden, Public park in Södermalm, Stockholm, Sweden.

Helgalunden is a public park in Södermalm that spreads across a hill called Tjurberget with green spaces and recreational areas throughout. The park is defined by eight groves and bordering streets, including Rosenlundsparken, Tjurbergsgatan, and Götgatan, offering distinct zones for different uses in its northern and southern sections.

The park was laid out from 1910 on Tjurberget, where the Helgan windmill stood until its demolition in 1906. Per Olof Hallman drew the 1913 street plan, revised in 1928 by Paul Hedqvist, replacing Albert Lindhagen's grid with curved streets fitted to the slope and to Ringvägen. In the 1920s HSB built the 250 flats of Kvarteret Metern around the park.

The name Helgalunden comes from the miller Helge Helgesson and the windmill Helgan, which stood on Tjurberget in the late 1600s. The miller's cottage from that time still stands in the park's western part. Allhelgonakyrkan, built in 1918 in national romantic style with dark-tarred wooden facades, replaced a chapel from 1906.

Helgalunden sits by Skanstull on Södermalm, with Allhelgonagatan and Tjurbergsgatan among the streets around it. The ground rises over Tjurberget, so paths climb and the church stands on the higher part. The miller's cottage remains in the western section of the park.

The miller's cottage from the late 1600s still stands in the park's western part, a remnant of the windmill Helgan that gave the area its name. The windmill was demolished in 1906, and the Helgalund Chapel was built in its place before Allhelgonakyrkan replaced it in 1918.
