Djurgårdsbrunnskanalen (Swedish: "The Djurgården Well Canal") is a canal in central Stockholm, Sweden, separating the island Djurgården from the northern mainland (or more correctly Southern and Northern Djurgården).
The canal stretches Шаблон:Convert from Lilla Värtan to Djurgårdsbrunnsviken and allows ships Шаблон:Convert wide and Шаблон:Convert deep to pass.[1] Two bridges pass over the canal: Djurgårdsbrunnsbron and Lilla Sjötullsbron.
The decision to build the canal was made by King Charles XIV in 1825. The canal was completed in 1834.[2] It was built to make it easier for smaller ships with supplies to reach the center of Stockholm, but also for aesthetic reasons because Djurgården is a royal park.
