Urvädersgränd

Urvädersgränd is a steep stone and cobblestone stairway in Stockholm that connects Mossebacke Square to Götgatan Street. The passage winds between traditional Swedish buildings and offers changing views as you climb or descend.

The stairway developed as Södermalm grew into an urban neighborhood and served as a key passage for local people over centuries. It was built in stone to address the steep slope of the terrain, with its layout remaining largely unchanged.

The stairs are part of Södermalm, a neighborhood that transformed from a working-class area into a creative hub for artists and musicians. The district attracts people who value history and artistic expression.

The stairs are steep and require good footwear and careful footing, especially during wet or icy weather. Cafes and restaurants are located nearby at both ends of the stairway.

The original stone slabs show worn paths from decades of use, revealing how countless people have traveled this route. The name refers to Swedish weather in poetic language, giving the place a literary quality that fits its artistic neighborhood.
