Stäket

Stäket straddles the narrow Stäket waterway on Lake Mälaren in Stockholm County, and this strategic crossing has long connected Stockholm with the inland Mälaren region. Set between the municipalities of Järfälla and Upplands-Bro, it combines waterside residential areas with major road and rail links. Nearby, the ruins of Almarestäket recall a medieval archiepiscopal stronghold that was destroyed in 1518, giving the area a tangible link to Sweden’s late medieval power struggles. Lake Mälaren’s shores and channels remain central to Stäket’s identity. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Stockholm County.
