If you’ve been to Stockholm, you know how difficult it is to find toilets in the city centre. Toilets are rare, they are charged for, and they are often located in the back of stores and other hard-to-find places.
To make things worse, tourists often don’t have the necessary 10 SEK coin to get in, or the toilets can only be opened by sending a text message from a mobile phone registered in Sweden.
That is why the toilet situation has annoyed many Stockholm visitors, especially those travelling with children.
The good news is that all in all 42 new free self-cleaning toilets will be made available this year. About half of them are already in place.
More toilets will be installed next year. Eventually, 70 new public toilets will have been installed.
Toilet map
There is a Google map available with all the toilets: Stockholm’s public toilets. The toilets with dark green checkmarks are the ones that are in operation (“i drift”). The map seems to be managed and updated by the administration of the city.
