History of the Beach Pavilion

Since the beginning of the last century, Marholmen has been a place where people have rested, studied and enjoyed themselves. Strandpaviljongen was built as a dormitory for the Folkbildningshemmet, which opened in 1926. The factory workers who came here to study were given their own room, which at the time was a tremendous luxury for workers from overcrowded Stockholm.

For eighty years, the building was home to Birkagården's summer courses. Here have lived people who have had their first opportunity to study further after elementary school, union activists who have delved deeper into laws and agreements and those who have immersed themselves in art, theater and music.

Every Wednesday, in the courtyard outside the dormitory, there were play dates for singing and dancing. They attracted playful people, mainly young men, who came on foot, by bicycle or by boat. The dance evenings became increasingly popular and could gather several hundred pleasure seekers.

"Many young people have swarmed the beautiful rose garden. Many, both pupils and staff, have found their life partner here', recalls one of the teachers.
