Reviews
A well-organized museum that covers Swedish history from the Viking age through to the present day. The Viking section stands out in particular — informative and grounded, without romanticizing the period too much.nnWhat makes it worthwhile is seeing how each country has its own distinct historical arc, and this museum does a good job of making that tangible through its artifacts and layout.nnOne practical note: not all displays had English translations, though the museum does provide English handouts to compensate. It works, but having the information directly next to the exhibits would be more convenient.nnWorth a visit, especially if you have an interest in Scandinavian history beyond the usual highlights.
A traditional history museum covering Sweden’s prehistory, the Viking Age, the Middle Ages, and the formation of the early Swedish state. The Viking Age galleries feature swords, jewelry, rune stones, everyday tools, and grave goods, while the medieval collections focus on church art and artifacts related to the development of the kingdom. The museum’s most famous section is Guldrummet The Gold Room, which displays Viking silver and gold hoards, royal jewelry, and outstanding examples of medieval metalwork.n※ Included in the Go City Pass.
Spent nearly 3 hours looking at all the exhibits, the Viking history, Gold room down the stairs, plus a few other exhibits. Very well laid out and interesting. Also immersive things for both children and adults to try in most exhibit areas.
Have yet to visit until today, wow! Fantastic interactive history museum starting with the Neolithic age. Love love love. Highly recommend. Not too far of a walk from the Nordic Museum Nordiska, another must see!
Fantastic museum showing the history of Sweden. Multilingual displays were fantastic. The artifact replicas next to the displays were fantastic for being able to feel and see you close.
