This was an incredible, last-minute experience my partner and I stumbled upon — and we’re so glad we did! With a restaurant on-site, we were treated to some amazing food. If you’re after authentic Swedish meatballs, I’d recommend visiting for those alone! The museum is reasonably priced, offering access to four fascinating floors of Swedish history, culture, fashion, and customs. I particularly enjoyed the exhibit on British influences in Swedish fashion and the Arctic exhibition — both were engaging, entertaining, and incredibly educational. My partner and I couldn’t stop talking about everything we learned throughout our visit. If you’re looking to kickstart your Stockholm adventure, this museum is a must-visit. You’ll walk away with a deeper appreciation and understanding of the city’s rich culture, giving you valuable insights to enhance the rest of your trip.

A good idea for an active way to spend time in Stockholm, in the winter season it is worth considering buying a day ticket for public transport.

Very good, but be careful, most attractions have very limited opening hours.
