The YMCA Castle ("Borgen") is a 1911 building by Fyrisån and Jernbron in the Fjärdingen district in central Uppsala. In the building is the Alfvénsalen concert hall, named after the composer Hugo Alfvén, long-time music director at Uppsala University and director of the Orphei Drängar men's choir.

The YMCA Castle is a four-story stone house with a tile roof. One part of the house consists of living space and some office space, the other part of the house is rented out to various companies and cultural activities, including a recording studio. The best known is the Alfvénsalen's house on the second floor, Orphei Drängar's concert hall, with space for around 250 people. Source: Wikipedia
