Kungliga Myntet

Kungliga Myntet is an architectural complex in Kungsholmen comprising several structures from the 1850s that exemplify Swedish industrial building design. The ensemble consists of different-sized buildings that work together as an integrated work compound.

The complex was built in the 1850s as a production facility and served Sweden as the sole minting center until 1974. After closure, the buildings were converted for government offices and organizations.

The name reflects its past as a coin-minting center, and today the site hums with activity from government workers moving through its corridors. The industrial character of the buildings still shapes how people perceive this corner of Kungsholmen.

The buildings are visible from outside and located centrally in Kungsholmen, easily reachable on foot. Visitors should know that many spaces serve as government offices and public access may be limited to certain areas.

Two buildings from the late 1700s still stand on the property, predating the minting facility's industrial operations. These older structures offer a glimpse into the site's earlier use.
