Skansen Open-Air Museum Tickets

Time travel to pre-industrial Sweden

Step into the world of yesteryears with an entry ticket to the Skansen Open-Air Museum. As you enter, you'll be transported back to pre-industrial Sweden between the 16th and 20th centuries. The museum, spread over 75 acres, showcases over 150 buildings from different geographical regions including red-painted wooden farmhouses, rustic barns, and charming cottages with steep, shingled roofs. There are working windmills, quaint wooden churches with bell towers, and period-specific shops like blacksmiths and apothecaries. Experience the diversity of social conditions and traditions, from the simplicity of rural homesteads to the grandeur of city residences.

Wildlife encounters and market adventures

Your historical immersion will be heightened with encounters of both domestic and Nordic wild animals such as lynx, elk, and brown bears. A zoo with domestic animals like cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs for younger visitors ensures an exciting and educational experience. Enhancing your visit further, dine at one of Skansen's restaurants offering panoramic views of Stockholm (meal not included in ticket price) or shop for traditional handicrafts at the museum store.
