The story of Mosebacketerrassen

Mosebacke has been a place for entertainment since the 18th century, when the inn Stockholms vapen stood here with a garden and a wide view over the city. Around 1850 C. A. Wallman bought it and added attractions such as carousels and a summer theatre. The present Södra Teatern, designed by Johan Fredrik Åbom, opened in 1859 after the first theatre burned down in the Mosebacke fire of 1857.

Beside the theatre a gateway shaped like a small triumphal arch leads out to the terrace. August Strindberg described the view over Saltsjön and the city at the start of his 1879 novel The Red Room. Next door rises the brick Mosebacke water tower, designed by Ferdinand Boberg in 1896.

Between 1999 and 2010 the terrace hosted concerts by artists including Robyn, Veronica Maggio, Timbuktu and Gilberto Gil. Today it opens whenever the weather allows, under a 24-metre awning fitted with heat lamps.

Times look wrong, for example because the terrace is on the other side of the building? Fix the location in OpenStreetMap and Stoligt will follow at the next update.

How Stoligt works it out

Every ten minutes we draw a line from each terrace toward the sun and check whether a building or hill is tall enough to block it. Building heights come from OpenStreetMap and ground heights from Lantmäteriet, the Swedish mapping agency. The times assume a clear day, so clouds are not included here. They are on the live map, which shows today's weather.

Trees, parasols and awnings are not in the model, and we don't know exactly where on the pavement the tables stand. Treat the times as an educated guess, often accurate to within ten minutes.
