Really good museum to learn more about Stockholm’s history. Admission is free but they are closed on Mondays. Located in a very convenient location next to Slussen train station. I thought the exhibition divides the time period well and there are English signs on most of the exhibits. Unfortunately audio guide seems to be only in Swedish. My most favourite part is the exhibition around the building history of the City Hall. There are many old pictures with detailed explanation in English and Swedish. This was presented through a screen where you can take your time to view each image. As with all museums in Stockholm, portable chairs are available so you can take your time! Lastly I also think they have the best gift shop out of all the museums. Many interesting post cards and merchandise

Whenever visiting Stockholm and Gamla Stan area, make sure to drop by at Stockholm City Museum (Stadsmuseet i Stockholm) located at Södermalmstorg/Ryssgården, near to Tunnelbanestation Slussen. The museum has a very nice architecture, spacious, and relaxing atmosphere. The exhibits are interesting and many are interactive, frequently updated. The hat room exhibit with the virtual butler is quite hilarious. It's free entrance and friendly staff also makes it a great place to visit for family, friends, students and guests - and learn something about Stockholm and its rich history and culture. Also check out their website for group guided tour schedules/themes.

This museum is is Fantastic! - Showing Stockholms development during the 500 years. - ALL different techniques are used to give the viewer the feeling of what Stockholm has been like through history. - Sounds of noices in the streets 150 years ago. - Hearing how the shop assistents would speak to the customers. - Trying hats that were modern then. - Seeing what factories and professions existed in the center of Stockholm in those days. My list can go on an on. This museum is top notch I think! One visit is not enough. There's a lot to see AND lots to experience. Very suitable for children as well. Strongly recommended.

* easy to get here: there is a slussen public transport hub nearby; if you prefer a car, use the city parking system (cheaper than parking garages) since museum does not have any visitor`s parking * cafeterie with snacks and cakes (coffee is "drink as much as you can" 😃) * bathrooms even there is no admission fee, the museum is interesting for both - adults and kids (our kids are 8 and 10). displayed different historical facts and info (industry, war, health care, brewery,..), along with recent city development. SUMMARY: worth visit; 4 stars because of sort of kids corner would be appreciated.

18.02.2024 I visited the Stockholm Museum on a Sunday. It was a free entry. (I believe it is free from Thursday to Sunday). The museum covers everything right from Stone Age to the modern era. Everything is maintained really well and all information is written both in English and Swedish. It has 4 floors (Ground plus 3 more) and starts in chronological order. I loved the museum and you need at-least 3 hours to be there. + Free Entry + Extremely informative + Very friendly Staff - Missing steps to follow a path, else you move round in circles (or miss you places)

Situated just next to Slussen metro and train station this museum has a free entry. It is a very nice place to have all the knowledge regarding Stockholm City. The museum covers city's history from 9th century to the modern time. Whole timeline is divided in 3 parts and 3 floors of the museum. They have a very collection of photographs also. Old historic items along with the dresses from that time are also here. Overall the museum covers the living situation of its citizens for 1200 years and does an excellent job at it. I really liked visiting here.
