 During the Middle Ages and until the 1520s, however, a square called Fisketorget was found between Brunnsgränd and the alley north of it, Nygränd ("New Alley"), at the time the biggest in Stockholm connected to the central square Stortorget ("The Big Square") through Köpmangatan ("The Merchant's Street").In the early 19th century, the well could still be found in the western end of the alley, but it has since been surrounded by buildings.Occasionally, the alley's name is erroneously associated with a fountain from 1912, located on Österlånggatan, under the statue of Saint George and the Dragon.
