I didn't know I would find a Rembrandt painting at this museum, but I also didn't expect to be blown away by paintings by painters I never heard of. This museum is well worth seeking out! More

One FYI: if you have any big bags or coats they will make u rent a locker (need a 5 krona coin). They attendant forgot to tell me and as I... More

Very good with long Wednesday opening hours. All museums should work longer hours than shops since people would go there when they are done with shopping. At least me. This is a great museum with good temporary exhibitions and Hasselblad center that shows great photos few times a year. As all state owned museums very affordable, just 40 kr for... More

This museum may come as a positive surprise for some visitors. It has an excellent collection of European and especially Scandinavian art. In the so called Fürstenberg gallery, which was originally a private collection, some of the most famous Scandinavian painters like Ernst Josephson, Carl Larsson, PS Krøyer och Anders Zorn, are included.

An excellent selection of Scandinavian art, both old and new; a good mix, and a delightful cafe to have a break in between soaking up the art. Free to under 25s which is excellent. More

there are couple of the requisite Van Goch, Picasso, Monet, Manet works and some interesting work from the Rembrandt school, but nothing really wow. Also some renaissance paintings. The highlight ofr me was the Swedish period art. Very interesting. and a pair of Conrad Botes contemporary pieces that I loved. More
