Södra Bankohuset, Historical bank building in Gamla stan, Stockholm, Sweden
The Södra Bankohuset stretches along three connected sections, featuring Renaissance and Baroque architectural elements with distinct window treatments and corridor details.
Construction of the building started in 1675 for Riksens Ständers Bank, with the western façade completed by 1682 and eastern additions following between 1733 and 1737.
The building represents the evolution of Swedish banking practices, transitioning from medieval wealth management to structured financial institutions in the 17th century.
The National Property Board maintains its headquarters in Södra Bankohuset since 1994, preserving this historical structure for future generations.
Three generations of architects contributed to its design: Nicodemus Tessin the Elder, his son Nicodemus Tessin the Younger, and Carl Hårleman.
