A sculpture of a fish made of stainless steel stands on a pole in the water. Nearby sits a rail switch from 1989.

In 1985, Ebba Hedqvist created Fiskfossil, a sculpture of a fish made from stainless steel. The sculpture is located on Smedsudden at Kungsholmen in Stockholm.

The fish and its pole are made of stainless steel, which reflects in the waters of Riddarfjärden at Smedsuddsbadet.

Near the sculpture is a rail switch, Smalspårig växel, created by Inga Bagge in 1989.
