The Nordic Museum

Nordiska museet
Theme Day.Museums. Back at Royal Djurgården. This is the Nordic Museum. Or, Nordiska museet at Lejonslätten. If you ever visit Djurgården, you can't miss it. After an idea from Artur Hazelius who also was responsible for Skansen. In here you will find Swedish history, dating back over 500 years. You need a big memory card here as the museum have 1 500 000 items in their records. The building itself dates back a little over a century, and was designed by the architect Isak Gustaf Clason. My first visit here was a school trip in the 1970s, and that was also my last visit to the museum.

That is a very impressive building. It would be easy to spend lots of hours/days inside looking at the treasures it holds.
