==History== Örby got its name from the Örby Manor (Örby slott), as does the neighbouring residential area of Örby slott. Örby was created a self-governing village within Brännkyrka Rural District in 1904. The area was amalgamated with Stockholm City in 1913 and the rural district was dissolved. In the present administration of the city, it is part of the borough of Enskede-Årsta-Vantör. ==Notable buildings== Leipzighuset is a multi-dwelling apartment house located at the corner of Turingevägen / Gamla Huddingevägen in Örby. Built in the early 1900s, the architecture differs from other buildings in Örby and was inspired by German metropolitan architecture from the turn of the 1900s.
