Kungsklippan:

The place is called Kungsklippan: according to legend, the great commander Lennart Torstensson has built a castle here, with views to the Tre Kronor.
The traditional torchlight procession went to here, led by Swedish Railways Band, from Essingestråket up to valborgsmässobålet, with life-speeches, songs, fireworks, hot dogs and nice views towards the Old Town and the town hall.

Platsen heter Kungsklippan: enligt sägnen ville den store fältherren Lennart Torstensson bygga ett slott här, med utsikt mot slottet Tre Kronor.
Den traditionella fackeltåg gick till här, anförda av Svenska Järnvägars musikkår, från Essingestråket upp till valborgsmässobålet, med livs tal, sång, fyrverkerier, varmkorv och fin utsikt in mot Gamla Stan och stadshuset.
