Kungsträdgården is the end station of line 10 and line 11. The platform is located approximately 34 meters underground, which makes it the deepest Tunnelbana station in Stockholm. Original artworks hang from the walls or are painted directly onto the walls. The stations also features relics rescued from some of the old houses torn down during the redevelopment of central Stockholm during the 1950s and 1960s: old statues, intricately carved columns, old water fountains, and more.
The color scheme (red, white and green) is a reference to the old French formal garden, and statues around the station are actually replicas of Makalös Palace's exterior art.
The station has become famous for its unique flora and fauna. When a team of researchers took samples from the naked granite walls in 2012, they found a whole array of life, from crane flies to rare moss and tiny insects and worm-like animals.
It's also the only place in Northern Europe where the Lessertia dentichelis spider can be found. The cave-dwelling spider has lived on the station's walls ever since it opened for service in the mid-1970s, but scientists do not know exactly how it got there. Presumably, it traveled on machines and excavation equipment from Southern Europe that was used during the construction. There is also moss growing on the walls that was previously thought to be extinct in the Stockholm region.
