General information
The inn Kräftan is located right next to Brunnsviken between meadow and water. The area called Kräftriket is mentioned in both Bellman's and Taube's poems and is part of the Ulriksdal-Haga-Brunnsviken-Djurgården area which, according to the Riksdag decision in 1993, is a national city park. In the past, Kräftriket was called Cathrineberg and was a hunter's residence. From the end of the 18th century, inn operations were carried out where they served the best crayfish in town, hence the name. Architect Office Area Chica.
