Stockholm Court House (Swedish: Stockholms Rådhus) is situated on Kungsholmen in Central Stockholm, Sweden. The building was constructed between 1909 and 1915. The architecture is influenced by the Castles of the Vasa era and it bears a resemblance to Vadstena Castle. The building is connected to Stockholm Police House through a culvert. A fire ravaged the third floor of the south/left wing of the building in June 2008.[1]
