submay: Solna Centrum


This stop. Solna Centrum, Stockholm.

The distinctively red Solna Centrum is part of the magical Blue Line on the Stockholms Tunnelbana. It was opened in 1975 and actually serves Solna Municipality about five kilometers north of Stockholm. It is also the home station for Råsunda Stadium, where the Swedish national football team plays.


The Tunnelbana is a treasure trove of art. In fact it is often referred to as the world's longest art gallery. Solna Centrum's artwork is steeped in social consciousness. Many of the installations are themed around environmental issues. Yes, the environment was a big issue back in the 70's too.
