for art lovers, this is the number one attraction in Stockholm and is one of the world's top museums, comprising an international collection of old masters paintings including Scandinavian art by masters such as Carl Larsson. There are also special exhibitions during the year. The museum is located on one of the city's many islands, now joined to the mainland.... More

Lots of great art, Rembrandt, Goya, French baroque painters etc. Also statues, icons, furniture, porcelain, design. Permanent and exhibitions. Unfortunately it will close for four years in just a month time, so hurry! I guess they will find some sort of temporary site but I'm not sure.

Part of the "next round" of sights to probe a bit deeper after the obvious tourist circuit. Interesting art that shows the ways that Sweden has long been European and long not exactly European.

The collection is not a lot, but is interesting enough. You can take a very close look (compared to thick glasses and footlines in some other museums) to most works. One thing that is quite disappointing is that I intended to see some Hammershoi paintings which were taken away for preparation of some upcoming exhibitions. There is a canteen inside... More
