Church of St. Nicholas (Storchyurkan (Storkyrkan) - the place where kings are crowned and married. In 2009, Princess Victoria, the heir to the Swedish throne, married a sports coach here. The church is modest on the outside, very beautiful inside. There are many interesting details, pay attention to wooden sculpture of St. George - an exact copy of which can be seen on one of the squares of Gamla Stan. It is located next to the Royal Palace, you will not pass by: ) Entrance to the church is free.
