Riddarfjärden, literally The Knight Firth, is a bay of Lake Mälaren in central Stockholm. Stockholm was founded in 1252 on an island in the stream where Lake Mälaren drains into the Baltic Sea. The island is today called Stadsholmen and constitutes Stockholm's Old Town. It is surrounded by land to the north and south, and by water to the west and east. The panorama picture featured in this article was taken from the heights of Södermalm, west of Stadsholmen, looking down on Riddarfjärden.
