Birger Jarls torg
Birger Jarls torg is a public square on Riddarholmen in Gamla stan, the old town in Stockholm, Sweden. The square used to be called Riddarholmstorget, but was in the mid-19th century renamed Birger Jarls Torg after Birger Jarl, traditionally attributed as the founder of Stockholm, and a statue of him was erected on the square in 1854. The square is surrounded by half a dozen of palaces, today mostly occupied by various governmental authorities, together making not only the square, but the entire island a less than vital area isolated from the rest of the city by the artery traffic route Centralbron. (See Riddarholmen.) Just south of the square is the church Riddarholmskyrkan.
