Stockholm Town Hall and its architect Ragnar Östberg
Ann Katrin Pihl Atmer
Stockholm Town Hall is the most famous building in Sweden and, thanks especially to the annual Nobel Banquet, it has become a symbol of both the city and the nation. The magnificent Tower, with its three Golden Crowns, is recognised worldwide. This book is the first to give a complete account of this splendid building and the complicated history of its creation. Ragnar Östberg (18661945), its architect, developed a working environment in which he and his colleagues fellow-architects, artists and craftsmen all contributed the best fruits of their imagination.
The Town Hall, with its pictures and statues, its furniture and textiles, is a work of all the arts. Ann Katrin Pihl Atmer describes the whole process by which this stately building took shape, from the Citys decision in 1911 to erect a Town Hall, to the opening ceremonies on Midsummers Eve, 1923.
Ann Katrin Pihl Atmer is an architectural historian and Associate Professor of the History of Art. She has been a Curator of the Swedish Museum of Architecture and a Lecturer at Stockholm University.
