The Stockholm Exhibition

Svenska

Follow the transformation from a small town in northern Europe to an urban, Scandinavian metropolis.

From plague to punk rockers, via royal warmongers, breakthrough innovations and of course “folkhemmet” — the Swedish prosperity concept.

The different parts of the exhibition

On Ryssgården, which we also can see outside the museum’s window, a Russian merchant displays his wares. He has the right to do so here, although under stringent control. And should war break out, he may instead find himself in a Swedish jail. Photo: Mattias Ek.
