Staffan Sasses Gränd

Staffan Sasses Gränd is a blind alley in Gamla stan, the old town in central Stockholm, Sweden.

Stretching north from Köpmangatan, it forms a parallel street to Bollhusgränd and Peder Fredags Gränd.

He served, first under Sten Sture the Younger (1493–1520), and then under King Gustav Vasa (1496–1560) during the ousting of the Danish forces.

Dundie was a merchant from Scotland who is said to have owned a garden in the alley, at the time facing his building on the opposite side of Köpmangatan.

His presence in Stockholm is first documented in 1576, and his business was apparently successful, since he owned a great number of properties in and around the city and is one of the renowned Blasius potentially having given his name to Blasieholmen, today a peninsula in central Stockholm but at the time an islet east of the city.
