 The name Lejonkulan, however, was in fact the name of a different building, which was also used by the same theater in the 17th century.Bollhuset was the scene of a long series of most important events in the history of the theater in the city and in the history of Swedish theater.Between 1667 and 1792 it was used as a theater until it was demolished in 1793; between 1737 and 1754, the first national theater was located here; in 1773–1782 the Royal Swedish Opera (and thereby also the Royal Swedish Ballet) was located here; in 1783–1792 the French theater of Stockholm was housed here; in 1787 the second national theater was re-founded in the building; and from 1788 to 1792 it was the home of the Royal Dramatic Theatre.
