Blackeberg is asuburb ofStockholm built in the 1950s, and is part of theBromma borough. Blackeberg was originally acroft first mentioned in 1599.[citation needed] The croft was demolished in 1861 by Knut Ljunglöf, who built a house, a stable, a mill and a saw instead.[citation needed] The saw and mill are now both cultural relics and are still standing in Kvarnviken for tourists to see.[citation needed] The city ofStockholm bought Blackeberg in the late 1940s. Three-story apartment blocks and a centre with a cinema and a library were built in the 1950s. Many people moved from the central parts ofStockholm to Blackeberg and neighbouring suburbs.
