About Kristineberg

What are the main landmarks in Kristineberg?

One name stands out. Hornsbergsvelodromen is the one landmark the record attaches to Kristineberg, a velodrome name that gives this corner of the Kungsholmen borough its sporting address. Otherwise the district keeps a low profile.

Stora Essingen and Lilla Essingen carry their own names on the same borough list, and a visitor working through central Stockholm will pass several of them in a day.

What is the history of Kristineberg?

Parish lines run underneath. The Kungsholmen borough matches the parishes of Kungsholm, Sankt Göran and Essinge, a church geography that still frames the ground Kristineberg occupies on the central Stockholm map. The borough takes its name from the island district at its centre.

Kristineberg keeps its own name in that arrangement, one of several districts folded under a single borough heading.

Where is Kristineberg?

Kristineberg shares the Kungsholmen borough of central Stockholm with Fredhäll, Lilla Essingen, Marieberg, Stadshagen and Stora Essingen.
