The Parliament House with a surprising secret

The Parliament House (Riksdagshuset) is the seat of the Swedish parliament, the Riksdag. Designed by Aron Johansson in the Neoclassical style, it was constructed between 1897 and 1905 and replaced the Old Riksdag Building on Riddarholmen. It originally housed the Riksdag. However, after the Riksdag became unicameral in 1971, the bank relocated. Today, the Parliament House remains an integral part of Stockholm, but there is a surprising connection to the Right Livelihood Award, also known as the Alternative Nobel Prize. In 1980, the award began its presentations at a ceremony in the Parliament House. The award is presented to those offering practical and exemplary answers to the most urgent challenges facing us today.
