Great Stockholm Fire of 1759
Major fire in Stockholm, Sweden
The Great Stockholm Fire of 1759 was the city’s greatest fire since 1686. It raged in the Eastern Södermalm on Thursday, 19 July, and over the following night, reduced about 20 blocks with about 300 houses to ash, and rendered about 2000 persons homeless. While no deaths were reported, there were 19 injuries. In Sweden, the fire is named Mariabranden after the Maria Magdalena Church, which was severely damaged.
