    This is absolutely the most essential and stupendous attraction in all of Stockholm. Adrenaline flowing, heart strings ringing, and my soul singing, I am so grateful to the Lord that I was able to enjoy this pinnacle and integral life experience. If you go to Stockholm, and miss this, you didn’t go to Stockholm. Short width, but its dreams tall; skinny street, but its length long.

    One of the narrowest street in Europe, named after a german emigrant (Mårten Trotzigs), has near 36 steps at some places 90cm wide Urban legend says if you walking down the street and press your hands to the walls, 36 whishes would be granted Unfortunately I wasn’t lucky enough to test that theory as the street was under construction while I was visiting Stockholm, maybe next time Very famous tourist pictures-spot, walls of old buildings covered all over with a plenty of not very artistic graffiti, which spoiling the looks in my opinion #TheNerrowestStreet #TheNerrowestStreetStockholm

    It's a street that is narrow with stairs. Not sure what's the allure here, but definitely not worth the high rating. Nice to take your Instagram photos, but otherwise nothing really significant about it

    Nothing spectacular…but a great place to stop in Gamla Stan for a few photos. It is an actual street, although you can touch the buildings on both sides. Don’t be confused by photos online that show a different street that is much wider. This one is distinctive!

    Because this street was too narrow so they have made it one way street, you have to enter from the upper entrance (Präsgatan) and exit to the bottom of this street (opposite Burger King in Gamla Stan)! Great experience while visiting Stockholm!🇸🇪

    Mårten Trotzigs gränd, Stockholm's narrowest street, is a captivating journey through time. Walking its cobblestone path feels like stepping into a historical canvas, surrounded by centuries-old buildings exuding charm. The narrowness of the alleyway adds an intimate touch, evoking a sense of discovery. Each step reveals architectural wonders, creating a picturesque atmosphere. The street's unique character invites exploration, providing a delightful escape from the bustling city. Mårten Trotzigs gränd stands as a testament to Stockholm's rich history, making it a must-visit for those seeking an authentic and enchanting experience in the heart of the city. But, at the end of the day, it’s just a narrow street.

    This particular narrow street (indeed, totally unexpected here, you'd rather find it in Lisbon's historical quarters) is nothing but narrow... but the whole neighbourhood instead is notable, really charming, colourful and well preserved.

  • 3/5 Allen W. 2 years ago on Google
    Just another narrow street with a lot of tourists. It has a rumour that if you walk the entire passage touching both sides you will have good blessings.

    Queue of tourists just to enter it even on a rainy week day. Not so impressive as expected. Better to visit at night or early in the morning

    A little fun activity. You will miss it if you are not looking for it. No one around when I was there so enjoyed being here as its really narrow.

    Its narrow but can allow 2 people to pass each other. In the old town withl lots of other places to visit and see. We walked up to the top then back down as there were more to see at the bottom. Fairly busy at times but worth a walk up.

    Not as narrow as I thought , the width was like a staircase inside a house, can go to have a look if interested or in the area

    One of Stockholm's hidden gems that exudes charm and history. It's a delightful experience to stroll down this picturesque alley, surrounded by colorful buildings and a cozy atmosphere. Snap a photo and immerse yourself in the unique character of this narrow street.

    Quite funny to walk through. However, wouldn't expect that much. At the end of the day, it is what it is - a narrow alley :)

  • 4/5 Ashraf Ali Awan A. 2 months ago on Google • 5 reviews New
    It is a beautiful and lively place in the city, we could not walk too long due to chilling weather and a light rain but will love to be there again and try to stay in these streets.any shops of Soviners and a beautiful wafel shop and people around the world despite of the winter season.

  • 5/5 Doug S. 11 months ago on Google
    It was one of the many streets we walked while exploring the amazing Gamla Stan.

  • 5/5 R M. 8 months ago on Google
    Find a minute to see the narrowest street in the old town in Stockholm. It’s super narrow and borderline scary to get in for a picture! It’s free and no ticket required.

  • 4/5 Momo W. 8 months ago on Google
    It's a cute street to visit. It's easy to miss! So don't miss it!!!!

  • 4/5 Vinumol Maliekal N. 9 months ago on Google
    There is no entrance fees. It's free.. Just a narrow street. Only half of it is really narrow. The other half is little bit wide.. Follow Google maps to find it.. There is no sign board to guide you.. Only one person can comfortably walk through the narrowest part. So sometimes you will have to wait for people to pass. Otherwise there is no waiting time.

    Wirklich sehr schmale Gasse! Interessanter Durchgang. Empfehlenswert!

  • 5/5 Collins S. 2 years ago on Google
    As the name suggests, it's the narrowest Street in Stockholm! I recommend that you access it from Prastgatan street so that you walk down instead of up.

  • 4/5 Makarov A. 1 year ago on Google
    Old Town. Every narrow street or Cafe has a history here. Would walk these streets any day

  • 5/5 Mauricio P. 4 years ago on Google
    Very unique "passage" or street if you want, there are some steps toward the top and nice graphite on the walls, at night for me it's more interesting

  • 5/5 Nadine S. 4 years ago on Google
    Beautiful walking tour. The weather was great and the people were full of positive energy and ready to discover.

  • 5/5 Iskander K. 5 years ago on Google
    Beautiful, historic place! Must visit!

  • 5/5 Eldest F. 5 years ago on Google
    This is all located in Gamla Stan. There is a self guided tour available on the Google maps.

  • 5/5 H A. 1 year ago on Google
    Fun little attraction to hunt for and enjoy photos and videos of. Others are very polite to give you the opportunity to snap your photos and it's in Old Town which is a great part of the city to wander around and explore the culture and a few gorgeous shops like Nystrom for beautiful bespoke leather bags and accessories 👌🏻👌🏻

  • 4/5 T B. 1 year ago on Google
    Cool place lost of history plenty to see and do even the kids will like it

  • 5/5 Onur E. 1 year ago on Google
    It was satisfyingly narrow. Worth seeing and having some wide angle photos

  • 5/5 Piyush J. 1 year ago on Google
    Worth a visit. Also try the coffee in the small cafe nearby.

  • 5/5 Alexandra A. 11 months ago on Google
    Nothing special, the narrowest street of the city. Lot of non patient tourists

  • 5/5 Ramūnas K. 1 year ago on Google
    The street is hidden by the wooden doors. Most of the tourists miss it and then have to return. Nothing special but reaching both street sides with your spread hands is quite interesting.

  • 5/5 Lisa B. 1 year ago on Google
    No more graffiti! A fun little stop.

  • 3/5 Jos J. 1 year ago on Google
    The graffiti is removed and at both sides of the street the are doors with locks.

  • 5/5 Taku K. 1 year ago on Google
    Luckily no one was around when I went there. A little fun activity.
