Järntorget, Pedestrian square in Gamla stan, Stockholm, Sweden.

Järntorget features a central cast iron well from 1829 and connects multiple streets in the southern part of Stockholm's medieval district.

The square transformed from Korntorget to Järntorget in 1489 as iron trade superseded grain commerce, marking a shift in Stockholm's economic activities.

The square displays a sculpture of Swedish composer Evert Taube in front of Södra Bankohuset, commemorating the nation's musical heritage.

Multiple bus routes and metro stations provide direct access to Järntorget, with numerous restaurants and shops located in the surrounding buildings.

Södra Bankohuset at Number 84, constructed between 1675 and 1685, stands as the oldest national bank building in the world.
