EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning model of the city of Stockholm, created by Trygve Jerneman in 1962, offers a captivating glimpse into the historical landscape of Stockholm during the late Middle Ages. The intricately detailed replica, which is housed in Stockholm's Medieval Museum, is rendered at a scale of 1:500 and measures an impressive 1,500 millimeters in length. At the heart of the model lies the city's Old Town, or Gamla Stan, with its maze-like streets, colorful houses, and bustling market square. The model faithfully recreates the key landmarks of the time, including the imposing Stockholm Castle, which dominates the skyline, and the city's two medieval monasteries, the Black Friars and Greyfriars. Bridges, both old and new, crisscross the waterways that surround the city, connecting the various islands that make up Stockholm. The coastline is dotted with quays and wharves, where ships would have moored, bringing goods and people to the thriving metropolis. The model also highlights the city's rich architectural heritage, with a variety of buildings, from grand churches to modest dwellings, all meticulously crafted. The panoramic view, which spans the entirety of the late medieval city, offers a fascinating insight into the history and culture of this Nordic gem, which continues to captivate visitors from around the world.
