The Golden Hall (Swedish: Gyllene salen) is a banqueting hall in Stockholm City Hall. Measuring 44-metre (144 ft) in length, it received its name when its walls were decorated by mosaics created by the artist Einar Forseth on a proposal by the City Hall architect Ragnar Östberg.[1] The hall is best known as the location of the ball after the annual Nobel Banquet in the City Hall's Blue Hall.[2]
