History

Sickla is an area on the western part of the peninsula Sicklaön, in the municipalities of Nacka and Stockholm. The toponym is said to be derived from Old Swedish, meaning "boggy ground, from which water emerges." The area north of lake Sicklasjön, today known as Sickla Köpkvarter, was previously an industrial estate, established in connection with the Saltsjöbanan railway expansion in the early 1890s. Two companies were active in this part of Sickla, and would later merge to form the global industrial group Atlas Copco; with its factories remaining active on site until the late 1980s.

In 1994, Nacka Municipality rezoned the old factory premises and turned the area into a retail park, in cooperation with a wholly owned subsidiary of Atlas Copco. Real estate company Atrium Ljungberg acquired the property three years later, and began working on reshaping the area into a modern shopping destination. This led to the construction of a new mall, Sickla Galleria, which was inaugurated in 2005. Atrium Ljungberg have continued to develop and manage the area since then, adding more office space and shopping malls.
