Lilla Blecktornsparken, Urban park in Södermalm district, Stockholm, Sweden
Lilla Blecktornsparken lies at the corner of Katarina Bangata and Ringvägen in Södermalm, laid out 1929–1937 to drawings by Per Olof Hallman. In its southeastern part stands the malmgård Lilla Blecktornet, built in 1787 for manufacturer Niklas Sjöberg, and a remnant of the estate's ash avenue survives in the southern part. The paved pond was designed by garden architect Erik Glemme, and the restaurant Bleck has its entrance on Katarina Bangata.
