Things to do in Stockholm, Stockholm County: The Best Specialty Museums

March 7, 2022 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.

Fotografiska Stockholm

Fotografiska is a vital centre for contemporary photography in the heart of Stockholm. The museum is a popular meeting point not only because of its exhibitions featuring the work of world renown photographers, but also for the museum's fantastic view and great food.Previous exhibitions: Annie Leibovitz, Robert Mapplethorpe, Sarah Moon, Sally Mann, Anton Corbijn and Albert Watson. Fotografiska also offers workshops, courses in photography, live bands, and much more.

Reviewed By 300kristak - Stockholm, Sweden

Fotografiska is a bit away from the city centre and you need to walk ca 800 meters from Slussen metro station but this is a must-visit place if you are interested in art. I have seen a number of great exhibitions of highly recognised photographers there (like David Lachapelle, Erik Johansson, Nick Brandt, Kirsty Mitchell). If you are an art lover, you must reserve at least 1,5 hours; if not, you can spend your time at the restaurant&cafe that have great views over the water to Djurgården and Gröna Lund. The museum is open from 9 to 23.00. Highly recommended.
