'Feskekörka' or 'The Fish Kitchen' opened on 1 November 1874 and was designed by Victor von Gegerfelt, who was also Gothenburg's former city architect. The building is very distinctive with its arched windows and a structure that stands without partitions or supports. The building was also considered quite futuristic for its time, back in the late 19th century. The fish auction was moved from Feskekörka in 1910 to the new fishing harbour and since then the Fish Kitchen has developed into Gothenburg's leading place for the sale of seafood. Today, Feskekörka is one of Gothenburg's most famous brands and a well-visited tourist attraction. Find cheap travel at Risskov and try a family self-drive holiday in Gothenburg, Sweden.
