The 10 Best Things to do in Skeppsholmen, Stockholm County

November 26, 2021 Mollie Coke

The capital city of Sweden combines modern attractions with historic charm. Kick off your stay with visits to Stockholm’s two UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Royal Palace Drottningholm (the residence of the royal family) and the magical Skogskyrkogården, or Woodland Cemetery. Stroll the cobblestone streets of Old Town and over the picturesque bridges that span the city’s canals. The 19th-century Skansen was the world’s first open-air museum and is still a premier place to learn about Swedish history.

Stockholm Toy Museum

Stockholm Toy Museum, previously known as Bergrummet, is the city's new museum of toys and comics. A 2500m2 meeting ground for all generations, the exciting caverns artistically display northern Europe's biggest privately owned collection of toys and comics, with about 40 000 items. Interactive play areas and unique architecture with plenty of room for joy, nostalgia and curiosity makes this a great destination for kids, grown ups and grandparents alike. We also have a cafe with baked goods and coffee, and of course plenty of cool toys in our museum shop.

A little out of the way from other major museums on its own island, but still relatively easy to get to, the Moderna Museet doesn't look like much from the outside but offers a spectacular collection of modern art in a well presented setting. We enjoyed a spectacular show of Egyptian Surrealism on our visit and superb selections including Picasso, Warhol, Matisse, and many other modern favorites, including well curated selections of Swedish and Scandinavian artists often overlooked in other world modern collections. If you love modern art, you shouldn't miss it.

Museum of Far Eastern Antiquities

The Museum of Far Eastern Antiquities is a vivid meeting place for Asian cultures, a forum for experiences and debate on Asia in the world, culturally and traditionally – both in the present and in the future.

Reviewed By siddy666 - Montreal, Canada

I would highly recommend this museum for tourists who have a passion for history and/or Asian culture, and for all locals! Pros: - the walk towards the museum provides some nice photo opportunities of Gamla Stan - FREE! - some of finest collection of Asian art/antiques that I have seen anywhere...Highlights for me included, 1) The Mongolian Buddhist statues brought by Sven Hedin, just sublime! 2) Sculptures from Tang Dynasty China 3) Japanese wood-block art 4) Pre-Shang dynasty artifacts from China; history before history so to speak :) - very nice descriptions, both in English and in Swedish Cons: - a very minor point, but the section containing Chinese literature could be better laid out/organized for appreciation by visitors; I would suggest skipping it in its present state

ArkDes

ArkDes is Sweden’s national centre for architecture and design. It is a museum, a study centre and an arena for debate and discussion about the future of architecture, design and citizenship.

Reviewed By jimhearson - Stockholm, Sweden

Absolutely jawdropping exhibition about moving the town centre of Kiruna to allow for mining - the scale and planning is astounding. The rest is great too - big fan of scale models of places I recognise, so I can see them from a different perspective. If you know more about Stockholm and Swedish settlements in general, you'll no doubt get even more out of it than I was able to.
