Svartmangatan, Medieval pedestrian street in Gamla Stan, Stockholm, Sweden.

The cobblestone street stretches from Stortorget square to Södra Benickebrinken, featuring traditional Swedish architecture and local shops along its path.

First documented in 1437, this street led to a Dominican monastery, initially named Svartmunka, referring to the black-robed monks who resided there.

The street name evolved from Svartmunka to Svartmangatan, reflecting the linguistic changes in Stockholm's street naming conventions through centuries.

Located in central Stockholm, this pedestrian zone restricts vehicle access, allowing visitors to walk freely between shops and restaurants throughout the day.

The street maintains its original medieval layout, connecting six intersecting passages that form a network in Stockholm's oldest district.
