While the street was created together with the statue in 1854 as a by-product of Nils Ericsson's construction of the third lock guiding the water flow from Lake Mälaren to the Baltic Sea, the name came into official use in 1872. An alley named Kvarnhusgatan passing between the block north of the street and a mill was discontinued together with the latter.[1] The street and the area around it was considerably altered following the reconstruction of the Slussen area completed in 1935.
The botanist and zoologist Carl Linnaeus (1707–1778), while living on Österlånggatan during the period 1738–1741, had his consulting rooms in the so-called Räntmästarhuset (literally: "Interest Master's Stairs", meaning: "Stairs of the Director of the Financial Administration"), once located on number 9. Before departing for Uppsala he handed the residence over to his relative Emanuel Swedenborg (1668–1772). The commemorative tile on the location is however erroneous in several aspects.[2][3]
