About Hjorthagen
What are the main landmarks in Hjorthagen?
Tennis leaves its mark here. Tennisstadion and the Tennispaviljongen carry the sport through the district, while Hjorthagens IP gives Hjorthagen its sports ground and Hjorthagens kyrka serves as the church for the streets around it. Millesgården and the Stockholms Spårvägsmuseum sit among the visitor names attached to the area.
Fiskartorpet and Villa Foresta round out the list, each one a fixed point in a district that answers to Östermalm.
What is the history of Hjorthagen?
Hjorthagen changed hands in 1997. An administrative change that year placed it inside the Östermalm district, and the ground it covers has been read as part of that larger unit of central Stockholm ever since. Ropsten and the Lidingöbron sat at the edge throughout.
Hjorthagens kyrka and Hjorthagens IP carry the district's own name, a sign that it kept its identity after the merger.
Where is Hjorthagen?
