    Beautifully situated art museum with some impressive sculptures and many paintings from known Scandinavian artists. Especially on a sunny day, it is highly recommended to walk around in the garden with marvelous views over the town and the water. .

      Waldemarsudde or Prince Eugene's Waldemarsudde (Swedish udde "cape, headland") is the southernmost part of the Stockholm peninsula Djurgården (Swedish for "zoo") with Prince Eugene's villa of the same name on it. The building is now a state art and open-air museum with the recreational park Frisens Park.

      The prince's grave is also located on the grounds.

      Prince Eugene's apartment, his art collection and paintings that he made can be visited. In the garden and on the terrace there are several statues made by important Swedish sculptors (Per Hasselberg, Bror Hjort, Ivar Johansson and others). The prince's grave is located near the shore behind an 18th-century house that became known as Gula huset ("Yellow House") and is now called Gamla huset ("Old House"). Two windmills of Dutch design with a codend had stood nearby since the 1780s: the five-storey linseed oil mill (Swedish: oljekvarn, linoljakvarn) with an eight-sided cap, which was built in 1784 by Johan Diderick Lundholm, produced linseed oil until 1830 and still exists today (without a wing cross), and the wind sawmill (Swedish: vädersågskvarn), which burned down in 1840 with all its outbuildings. The oil mill, which he had restored at the beginning of the 20th century, was a favorite motif of the prince.
