Lonely Planet review for Katarinahissen

Get high (literally) with a trip to the top of this industrial-age show-off. Connecting Slussen to the lofty Söder cliffs, the original 1883 steam lift was replaced with a less romantic model in 1936. Still, the views remain striking and the sky-high Eriks Gondolen bar and restaurant remains one of Stockholm’s best places to sip, sup and swoon. For a free ride to the top, take the lift inside the adjacent Konsum/Coop building and walk across the elevated bridge.
