Like some other stations on the Stockholm metro, it uses organic architecture, which leaves the bedrock exposed and unsculptured and the station appearing to be based on natural cave systems.
The underground station is named after Rådhuset (The Courthouse) right above the surface. The City Hall and the Police Headquarters are also located in the vicinity.
