Hagaparkens pelouse

Hagaparkens pelouse features a central lawn measuring 300 meters in length and 200 meters in width, surrounded by walking paths on all sides.

The landscape design was created by architect Fredrik Magnus Piper during the 1780s and completed in 1787 under the reign of King Gustav III.

The park became a preferred destination for Stockholm residents during the 19th century, with citizens gathering on the lawn during spring and summer months.

The extensive grassy area accommodates numerous recreational activities, including walking, picnicking, and seasonal events throughout the year.

During the 1930s, sheep grazed on the pelouse, while in the 1940s, children from Stockholm received milk and pastries during organized excursions.
