Frimurarebarnhuset

Frimurarebarnhuset, Former children's home complex in Blackeberg, Stockholm, Sweden

Frimurarebarnhuset is a group of ten buildings in Blackeberg, Bromma, designed by Hakon Ahlberg in Swedish 1920s classicism. The white facades and shallow slate-covered pitched roofs unify the complex, which includes a round dining hall where every child had a window seat, a school with a high entrance, a church hall, an infirmary and workshops. The buildings are set in an open, park-like garden next to Ljunglöfska slottet.

The Stockholm Freemasons' children's home was founded in 1753 with state guarantees. In 1867 it moved from the Brunkhalsen block to Kristinebergs slott on Kungsholmen. The order bought land in Blackeberg in the 1920s, and the new complex by Hakon Ahlberg was built in 1928–1930 and inaugurated in 1930. The orphanage closed in 1940, and the property was sold to the City of Stockholm in 1946.

The dining hall was round, and every child had a window seat at the table. The white facades and flat slate-covered gabled roofs tie the ten buildings together. Since autumn 2012 the former residences and infirmary have been private flats, while the dining hall, church hall and school house the Västerorts Aktivitetscenter (VAC).

The site is located in the Kristineberg area and can be reached easily by public transit with regular connections to central Stockholm. Check opening hours in advance, as access may be limited and the property is not always open to visitors.
