Hantverkargatan

Hantverkargatan, Passage on Kungsholmen in Stockholm, Sweden

Hantverkargatan is a roughly 1,800-metre street running east-west across Kungsholmen in Stockholm, from Stadshusbron to Fridhemsplan. Its buildings include Stockholm City Hall at number 1, the Royal Mint at number 5, Kungsholm Church, Kungsholmens gymnasium at 67–69 and the Basaren block at 69–71.

The street received its name in 1644, making it the oldest street name still in use on Kungsholmen. It was originally designed as a settlement area for craftspeople with workshops who carried out their trades on the island.

The street takes its name from the craftspeople and artisans who once lived and worked here. Today, visitors can still sense this handcraft heritage in the old facades and small shops, even though many original workshops have been replaced by modern businesses.

The street is easy to explore on foot and leads through the heart of Kungsholmen with clear entry points at both ends. The route features paved paths and sidewalks, making it convenient to walk through this historic neighborhood.

The street was long called Stora Kungsholmsgatan, a name used into the 1830s, and only in 1672, when Nya Kungsholmsbron was built, did it gain a direct bridge link to Norrmalm. That connection raised its status, and it became Kungsholmen's foremost street. Look for number 49, the former Biograf Manhattan, closed in 1982.
