The Stock Exchange Building, Börshuset, in Gamla stan, Stockholm was designed by Erik Palmstedt, and it was built from his construction drawings. The Stockholm Stock Exchange was the client, and the city council owns the building. The text gives 1773 to 1778 for construction, and the infobox gives only type and location. Gustav III inaugurated the exchange in 1776, which is before the stated 1778 completion, an apparent inconsistency.

The article names no style, materials or dimensions. The building was largely financed by the börstolagen, or Stock Exchange Law, duty.

The stock exchange moved out completely in 1998. The Swedish Academy has met there since 1914, including for Nobel Prize in Literature selections, and the building also houses the Nobel Museum and Nobel Library. The article gives no hours.
