The name[edit]

The name "Golden Hall" (merely a translation) was never given it, rather "Gyllene Salen". But it was not called so in 1909, the article claims, but not til the mosaics were completed, as the article suggests. Can this discrepancy be fixed?--Wetman (talk) 14:18, 29 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Height?[edit]

The article states that the hall measures 44 meters in height. If so, judging by the photograph, it must be about 2 miles in length. OldAndTired (talk) 23:40, 29 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
