GC23CBT Kronan (Traditional Cache) in Stockholm, Sweden created by JonLin

This cache has been archived.

JonLin: The entire area around where the cache was located is currently a construction site.
I was considering to wait and see what appears at the coordinates and see if the cache could be revived there.
But since there is no way of telling when the construction is done, and since it is probably further away than the 30 days mandated by the reviewers, I might as well archive the cache and open the place up for other more interesting caches.

Svenska: Apoteket Kronan (fotot ovan) invigdes den 26 juli 1902, och låg på den tiden på Landsvägen 65. Sextio år senare flyttades Apoteket Kronan till Esplanaden 13, där det låg tills dess att det flyttade till sin nuvarande plats 1981. Under lång tid innan Apoteket Kronan invigdes (Sundbyberg blev köping 1888), levererades läkemedel från apoteken Ugglan och Morianen i Stockholm. Behovet var dock tillräckligt stort att man 1901 tog beslutet att öppna ett apotek även i Sundbyberg. Försök gärna vara lite diskreta när ni letar efter cachen...		English: Apoteket Kronan (The Pharmacy "the Crown") was opened on the 26th of July 1902. It was located at Landsvägen 65. Sixty years later Apoteket Kronan was moved to Esplanaden 13, where it was located until the move to its current address in 1981. For a long time before Apoteket Kronan was opened (Sundbyberg became a town in 1888), pharmaceuticals were delivered from the pharmacies Ugglan and Morianen in Stockholm. In 1901 the decision was made to open a pharmacy in Sundbyberg as well. Please be discreet when searching for the cache...
