D AMay 3, 2016FREE ENTRANCE on wednesdays after 5 PM. And the amazing building, maybe the best museum from outside. And about the museum, you can learn many things about to Swedish culture, but not in must list

Dalton BoatmanJuly 10, 2015Exhibits on festivals, clothing, dinning, art and more the lives of the Swedes through the ages has been well documented. Make sure not to miss the Sápmi exhibit!
- eric bornemannJuly 14, 2019A good place to waste an hour or two especially if you are new to Swedish culture. The Strindberg section is fascinating for theater buffs. Really neat building as well.
StockholmOurWayNovember 21, 2013This stunning building was actually thought to be 4 times the size it is today, built across the the water from the Royal Palace, the king said no. It is one of the city's most impressive buildings.
Kevser Kutlu TatarNovember 21, 2017Don’t put it on your must list. But if you’re so curious about Sweedish traditions and life style you can plan a short visit. Otherwise, you will feel regretful for wasting your time unnecessarily.
BenNovember 9, 2016I use the Stockholm pass to get in. Snow outside so no busses for the day. Its a good museum that u can visit in 1 h .
Marie ShaposhnikovaOctober 12, 2015Really interesting ethnological museum About life and traditions of Scandinavian nations. 17-20.00 free entrance on Wednesdays
Nisa HnMay 22, 2016Only for people who appreciate history & culture..they have an audio guide so you don't have to read so much & the cafe serves good food!
JiahanApril 26, 2014beautiful & clean architecture with a great display of Nordic history & culture (close to vasa museum & has great ice cream stands in summer)- StockholmOurWaySeptember 29, 2013The Nordic Museum offers insight to the Swedish way of life. Learn about the Sami people, famous Swedish author August Strindberg and Swedish traditions.
Great cakes and pastries (as well as food) without added gluten or lactose. Yummy treats.
DHR.comDecember 6, 2011The Nordic Museum is where you'll learn about Sweden's culture from the Early Modern Age. Highlights include the Power of Fashion and Swedish Folk Art collections. Mon-Sun 10am-5pm.
Chris KraslotJune 22, 2014Not all subjects are interesting, but it gives a good view into the history. Audio guides are free. I'd suggest taking one because most descriptions are Swedish only.
- bluestormAugust 27, 2014If you have the Stockholm card get the free audio guide and do a quick round (45min). Otherwise it's not worth to go.
Johan LidmarJanuary 12, 2020Children playroom where there is a 19th century store is well liked by the kids.
Holly DMay 30, 2016visit during cheese fest in feb!!!! hundreds of nice vendors set up on the main floor, 🍷 bar & entry to 🧀 tasting is $ cheap!
Andrew ZNovember 4, 2015My favorite museum in Stockholm. A great mix of design, culture and history.
TravellerOctober 17, 2015One of the really big museums of Stockholm. Be prepeard to stay long. Nice restaurant, but not too cheap.- Giovanna BorghiMarch 3, 2015Come here first if you want to understand Sweden. It's very informative and interesting 💛💙
Zaharenia AtzitzikakiNovember 30, 2013Some exhibitions have swedish only descriptions (eg. swedish customs). Not convenient for those wanting to learn more about swedish culture.
Kevin ShieldsJune 23, 2012Bring your spare change - there is a great garage sale on the third floor called house wears.
Viktor SkierusOctober 14, 2012Check out the chocolate festival that is every oktober! It's to die for!
Alice GeynismanJanuary 4, 2019Есть камеры хранения для сумок и одежды. Вайфай на территории всего музея. Есть русский аудио-гид
Оксана КибиреваJanuary 29, 2017Для меня этот музей оказался самым интересным! Посуда, сервировка, мебель, ткани, игрушки, музыкальные инструменты! Там можно провести целый день. Очень познавательно!
Gordeya BileJanuary 22, 2014есть, что посмотреть (забавные стулья, старые фото, кукольные домики (!) и шведский рай в виде типичной квартирки образца 60х) + аудиогид бесплатный + кафе. для раздевалки заготовьте 10 крон в залог.

"This is the best experience I've had in Stockholm. Every dish was just spot on, with balanced flavored. It's vegetable heavy, and they really stand out in a way that I've only experienced a few times."
