This is the scene of one of the most spectacular political attacks in Sweden modern times. After a conflict with the harbour workers escalated to strike, the employers decided to lockout the workers and instead use imported strike breakers to do their job. Demonstrations, riots and street brawls followed. The british strike breakers were accomodated on the ship Amalthea in the harbour. The 12 of july 1908 three young socialists, put a bomb on the ship, the detonation killing one and wounding several more. The bomber fled in a rowing boat over the harbour, but unfortunately dropped the pay roll in the boat, reavling his identity. Read more:

Food Scene
Weekdays the veggie and fruit market is open daytime. You will get cheap stuff to cook at home. The greengrocers cry out "hela påsen tio kronor" means you get a full bag of X for only 10 SEK. Usually this happends when the market at saturday afternoon, just before closing. Don´t go by car. It´s impossible to find a place to park.
You also will find serveral ethnic food shops in this area. Here also are some cafes open for breakfast and brunch.
At evenings locals go out to eat, have a drink and party.

If you want to get a table here, book a month in advance. There is however often a chance to get a place at the bar and have something small to eat. In that case you should be here when they open. Their stunning cooking skills with nose-to-tail philosophy attracts foodies and hipsters of all ages. Also extraordinary wines. Weekend evenings the bar gets packed and the cocktail-swinging bartenders gets busy.
