View from Skeppsbron quay

The Skeppsbron quay used to be a lively place with merchants, craftsmen and fishmongers well into first half of the 20th century. Today it´s a nice place to stroll along with nice views of Stockholm's waterfront.

Facing east: Af Chapman is the name of the beautiful fullrigger ship docked along the quai of Skeppsholmen island. She was built in 1888 in Whitehaven, England and sailed as a British cargo vessel until 1908. Sold to Sweden, she was renamed D G Kennedy. Later, as a training ship for the Swedish navy, she was again renamed to af Chapman and kept that name when she became a youth hostel in 1949. The ship got its name from Sweden's leading 18th century naval architect Fredric Henric af Chapman.

Facing north: Stockholm's commercial centre lies beyond the Strömbron bridge.

Facing south: The street is lined with 17th century office buildings.
