"Yttersta Tvärgränd is a 140 meter long street on Södermalm in Stockholm . The street stretches from Skinnarviksparken in the north to Ringvägen in the south. The block west of the alley is called Kaninen Minsta . The block east of the alley is called Haren . From the northern part of the street, via stairs you can reach Skinnarviksberget , the inner city's highest natural mountain, 53 meters above sea level.
Yttersta Tvärgränd got its name in 1961, before that it was called Yttersta Tvärgatan . Before Ringvägen was built, the street had a longer stretch down to Krukmakargatan . The street has ancient origins - in Holm's land register in 1679 it is alternately called Ytterste Twärgatan , Nyia Twärgatta , Twär gata som Stannar I Berget and Twär gränden uyster uth . The name shows that the street was the westernmost of the cross streets that were drawn from Hornsgatan . In 1622–1650, Västertull was the city customs house at the intersection of Hornsgatan and the then Yttersta Tvärgata .
According to the Lindhagen plan from the end of the 19th century, the Ringvägen was to be extended north and connected with two curved ramps to Söder Mälarstrand . The ring road had then been drawn straight across the settlement along the western side of Yttersta Tvärgränden. [ 1 ] Skinnarviksberget's difficult topography had required a rock cut over 40 meters deep for the eastern ramp. The plan was never completed and Yttersta Tvärgränden was preserved. North of Yttersta Tvärgränd is today Skinnarviksparken .
The buildings at Yttersta Tvärgränd largely consist of preserved residential buildings from the 18th and 19th centuries. Houses number 2 and 5 were built in 1755, number 3 in 1765, number 9 in 1769. Numbers 7 and 10 were built in 1852 and financed with loans from the Fattigbyggnadsfonden . A thorough renovation and modernization of the houses on Yttersta Tvärgränd was carried out in the early 1980s. A residential building and two children's cottages then replaced the houses that were in too bad a condition to be preserved. The houses on the street are blue-labeled by the Stockholm City Museum , which means they represent "particularly high cultural-historical values". [ 2 ] Several properties in Haren 5 and Kaninen minsta are owned and managed by municipally owned AB Stadsholmen ".
