    This reminds me of the northern part of the current Prästgatan, “Priests Street”, in the Old Town in Stockholm.

    Before 1885 that part of Prästgatan was called Helvetesgränd, “Hell’s ally”, which is an amazing street name in Swedish, and a brilliant metal album name in English.

    The entire block was known as Helvetet, “Hell”.

    This is the location:

    This is where the gallows were located.
