Phenomenal experience. Highly educational in learning about the various cultures, along with learning about the psychological aspects of what we deem disgusting. The owner/founder of this museum gave us a personal experience and allowed us to taste various things. Highly recommend this to everyone, by far one of the most unique experiences I've ever had in a museum. Worth it!

Closed until October 26 2019. Crawl into a real submarine and see exhibitions with focus on technology and seafaring. If you like to experiment, the Ideas Planet is an obvious favourite, and in the Boat Playroom all children are invited to play. The Science and Maritime House is part of the Malmo Museer.

Interesting place with lots of fun features. Although I would have liked to know that the submarine was closed before I entered.

Very impressed with the exhibitions and the history of Malmohus Castle. Not usually a history buff, I found the castle history fascinating, and exploring around the castle took me back to the past. The exhibitions in the museum were thought provoking and well presented, as was everything in the museum precinct.

This is a really nice museum to experience the culture of Malmö, see old cannons and knights armor in the canon wing, visit the aquarium, animals, and if you go deeper into the caslte you will reach some beautiful castle style interior that will take you back in time. On top of that they usually have some new exhibition to experience. The christmas market is really nice as well and they even have free admission during this time. Tip: If you want to visit the Technological Museum across the street make sure you inform the cashier when you buy the ticket and you will get a combo ticket with a small discount.

One of the many fine art & design spaces to visit in Malmö, a little bit out of the shopping area. A vast exhibition space with, at the time of visit, an interesting exhibition with many varied designs by a Swiss/Swedish artist.Free entrance.
