Långholmsbadet, Beach area in Långholmen Island, Sweden.
Långholmsbadet is a bathing site on Långholmen island with sandy beaches along Lake Mälaren. The area offers shallow swimming areas, green lawns, and natural rock formations for visitors to explore.
The site was created in 1975 through a land transformation project where prisoners moved mud from waterways. This project shaped the landscape that makes the bathing site possible today.
The bathing site is where Stockholm residents gather during summer to swim and spend time outdoors together. It serves as a central place where the city's leisure and social life unfolds.
The site is equipped with changing facilities and showers for visitors. The Hornstull metro station on the red line provides direct access to reach the bathing area.
The soil contains diverse plant species that originated from seeds transported by merchant ships passing through Stockholm's waters. This botanical mix makes the ground itself an unexpected feature of the site.
