Carl Eldhs Ateljémuseum
Stockholm, Sweden
Carl Eldh's preserved Stockholm studio, containing his tools, plasters, and monumental bronze sculptures. Located in Stockholm, Sweden, it has long been a cherished destination for those with an interest in sculpture and art.
Konstbiblioteket Nationalmuseet
Stockholm, Sweden
The Nationalmuseum's research library occupies a wing of the original 1866 building on Blasieholmen in central Stockholm — a wood-panelled hall with a spiral stair, gallery shelves stacked with green-bound volumes, and tall windows that fill the space with Baltic light. It is one of the best-preserved nineteenth-century library interiors in Scandinavia, and one of the most beautiful rooms in any museum in the Nordic countries.
Millesgården
Stockholm, Sweden
Carl Milles's hillside estate on Lidingö, with bronze sculptures hovering above the Stockholm archipelago.
Prins Eugens Waldemarsudde
Stockholm, Sweden
Prins Eugens Waldemarsudde stands at the southern tip of the island of Djurgården in Stockholm, its waterfront villa and gardens looking across the open water towards the Baltic. Prince Eugen — known as the 'Painting Prince' — was one of the finest landscape painters of his generation, and the estate he built from 1899 onwards served both as his home and as a gathering place for Scandinavian artists at a moment of cultural renewal.
Strindbergsmuseet
Stockholm, Sweden
Strindbergsmuseet occupies the final apartment of August Strindberg at Drottninggatan 85 in central Stockholm — the flat he called Blå tornet, the Blue Tower — where he lived from 1908 until his death in 1912. Strindberg was among the most complex and prolific figures in modern cultural history: dramatist, novelist, painter, photographer, and polemicist, and the apartment preserves something of every dimension of his creative life.
Stuckatörens hus
Stockholm, Sweden
Stuckatörens hus — the Plasterer's House — is a rare survival of an eighteenth-century Stockholm craftsman's home, preserving both the domestic interiors and the professional legacy of a master stucco worker from the era of Sweden's Baroque and Rococo heyday. The house offers a glimpse into the working life of the artisans who shaped the interiors of the city's great churches and palaces.
Svenskt Tenn Design furniture
Stockholm, Sweden
Svenskt Tenn’s Stockholm shop brings together furniture, textiles and interior design associated with Estrid Ericson and Josef Frank. This is a working design shop rather than a house museum, offering a setting in which to encounter the company’s distinctive approach to interiors.
