City walk in English: Hear about horrific deaths, a very demanding Queen and a masquerade ball that changed history.

Listen to how 100 Stockholmers were executed in the town square; how the French philosopher Descartes died from ungodly work hours with the queen; on the assassination of King Gustav III at a masquerade ball, and about how a mob lynched Marie Antoinette’s lover Axel von Fersen.
