Prästgatan 13

The northernmost part of Prästgatan (Priest Street) was once known as Helvetsgränd (Hell's Alley). During the Middle Ages, it was thought that the part northwest of the church was a desecrated resting place for the dead. Storkyrkan (Stockholm Cathedral) is just around the corner; thus, this part of the street was called Hell.

Marten Trotzigs grand

Mårten Trotzig is the narrowest alley in Stockholm. At its narrowest point, it is only 90cm wide. Some guidebooks claim it is the narrowest alley in Europe, but unfortunately, that is not true; there is one in Prague that is only 60cm wide. With all certainty, there are alleys in other European countries that are narrower than Mårten Trotzig.
