20 years ago, the Swedish 1-m Solar Telescope (SST) started operations on La Palma with a bang as it achieved 0.1” resolution in the blue. Since then, its instrumentation has evolved to keep it at the frontline of research. The current status of the SST and its capabilities for observing the solar photosphere and chromosphere will be reviewed with the potential user of the telescope or its data in mind. Finally, the planned European Solar Telescope (EST), whose designated site is just beside the SST, will be presented.
