History

Stallmästaregården is the oldest remaining hostel in the Stockholm area with the same function since the mid-17th century. The farm existed since the 17th century when the first house here was built by Ebbe Håkansson, who decided to open an inn. That building was demolished around 1700 and replaced by a new building which is today the main building of the inn. Despite many changes, the former farm has retained its typical 18th-century character. The site was mentioned numerous times in the works of August Strindberg. [2][3][4]
