Introduction
Located on the Blasieholmen peninsula in central Stockholm, the National Museum houses around 500,000 artworks from the Middle Ages to the 19th century, including drawings, ceramics, paintings, sculptures, and modern art. Many of these valuable objects were donated by King Gustav III and Carl Gustaf Tessin. The museum, originally known as the Royal Museum when it was established in 1792, was officially renamed the National Museum in 1866 and moved to its current location.
The National Museum stands out with its architectural style inspired by Renaissance buildings in northern Italy, designed by German architect Friedrich August Stüler. The museum also features an art library for public and academic use. The mural painting "Gustav Vasa Entering Stockholm in 1523" by Carl Larsson adorns the walls and adds to the museum's charm.
The National Museum is a fantastic destination for exploring European culture, history, and art from the 18th and 19th centuries. Its elegant interior and diverse collection attract visitors from around the world. Adresse Södra Blasieholmshamnen 2, 111 48 Stockholm
