Sportpalatset, Office and apartment building in Kungsholmen, Stockholm, Sweden

The 58-meter high building features a domed lantern topped with a Swedish Swimming Federation sculpture at Sankt Eriksgatan 58-60.

Between 1929 and 1930, architect Jean Sigfrid Adrian designed this structure, which included Northern Europe's largest indoor swimming pool at the time.

The building housed Polar Studios where ABBA recorded their final albums, and nature painter Bruno Liljefors maintained his residence in the top-floor apartment.

The residential complex contains 59 apartments of different sizes and maintains a courtyard with petanque court, grill areas, and outdoor facilities.

Birds would fly directly into Bruno Liljefors' apartment as he kept his windows open and provided buckets of fish and meat to attract his painting subjects.
