Ekermanska malmgården, Historic summer residence in Södermalm, Sweden

Ekermanska Malmgården is a historic residential property comprising four connected small houses with surrounding gardens in Stockholm. The site features a gazebo and outdoor dance area, with indoor capacity for up to 50 seated guests and a garden tent that accommodates 60 people.

Carl Fredrik Ekerman bought two cottages at auction in June 1770 and named the property after himself; it is first mentioned as "Ekermanska malmgården" in 1780. His son, rådman Adolf Ludvig Ekerman, took over, and an 1813 valuation records a main building with stone footing, board cladding and a tile roof, plus 100 fruit trees and 200 berry bushes. The estate left the Ekerman family on 28 April 1856, when captain Bengt Gartz bought it and turned it into an inn called "Lätta livet".

The property serves as the hembygdsgård, or local heritage centre, of the Högalids hembygdsförening, which keeps its rooms and garden in use. The name comes from justitieborgmästare Carl Fredrik Ekerman, who bought two cottages on the site at auction in June 1770 and gave the malmgård its name by 1780.

The site is best accessed on foot or by public transport as it sits within an established residential neighborhood. Visitors should plan ahead since the grounds are rented for private events and access is limited to specific occasions.

The building holds blue classification from Stockholm City Museum, marking it with exceptional cultural and historical importance. This designation reflects its protected status equivalent to that of formal monuments.
