12 Number 37 Österlånggatan in Stockholm, Sweden

Österlånggatan is a quaint street running through the eastern side of Old Town. During the 13th century, this was the major road outside of the city walls facing Strömen Bay. It lost its prominence in the 17th century when a block of land was created to form Skeppsborn and the adjoining quay. Today, Österlånggatan is lined with buildings dating back centuries. A good example is Number 37 in the foreground. Part of this building is from Medieval times while most was constructed during the 17th and 18th centuries. The gable stone above the door reads in Dutch: “When luck stands by one have a lot of friends but when luck turns where are they then?”
