Gustaf Adolfs torg, Gothenburg

Gustaf Adolfs torg ("Gustaf Adolf's square") is a town square located in central Gothenburg, Sweden. It was named Stortorget (the Big Square) until 1854 when a statue of the founding father of Gothenburg, king Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden was raised.

The square is surrounded by the old and new city halls, the bourse, and the main harbour canal of Gothenburg.[1] It hosted the opening of the 10th Gothenburg Fringe Festival.[2]
