Nordiska Museet (Stockholm)
USED IN a Renaissancestyle building, the Nordiska
Museet collection was started by Artur Hazelius (1833 -1901),
founder of the Skansen open air museum.Hazelius intention was
to assemble a variety of objects that would remind future generations
of the old Nordic farming culture.
Today, the museum has over 1.5 million exhibits portraying
everyday life in Sweden from the 1520's to the present day. Items on
display range from priceless jewelry, to furniture, dolls' houses, and

of King Gustav Vasa (1924), and 16 paintings by the Swedish author and
