テービー周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

A museum that has just one ship as its theme? Incredibly, the whole thing is so exciting and beautifully done that we spent over 3 hours in the museum and aren't sure we really saw everything. The huge ship that sank on its maiden voyage in the 17th century after traveling just 1km is really impressive. What the Swedes built around it is even more amazing. The museum is really worth a visit.

Today I was lucky enough to be able to take part in a guided tour of the Swedish Parliament. You should know that only guided groups are allowed in. The tours are free and very informative. Prior registration is not necessary. Dates are announced on the notice board.

The museum revolves around one (immense) object: the warship Vasa. This ship capsized and sank during its maiden voyage in 1628, with the harbor still in sight. In 1961 they succeeded in salvaging the ship. It was conserved and reconstructed and has been open to visitors since 1990. For many people, this is the top attraction of Stockholm: a lot of people (read far too many people) in the museum, which did not always make it pleasant. Despite the crowds, definitely a top place that you should not miss in Stockholm.

About half of the island of Helgeandsholmen is occupied by Riksdaghuset, where the Swedish parliament sits. The parliament building was built between 1897 and 1905. It ultimately turned out to be almost twice as expensive as calculated by architect Aron Johansson in 1888.

Riksdagshuset, the Riksdag building in Stockholm is the seat of the Swedish Parliament. The building is located on the island of Helgeandsholmen and was built between 1897 and 1905.

Stockholm City Hall is the masterpiece of architect Ragnar Ostberg and a famous example of Swedish national romanticism. It now houses the offices of the City Council and Municipal Council, as well as large ceremonial spaces such as the famous Blue Hall, where the annual Nobel Prize ceremony and banquet are held. Designed to imitate a Viking longship, the Council Chamber is decorated with furniture by Carl Malmsten and unique artworks, while the Golden Hall features elaborate wall mosaics shimmering with more than 18 million gold leaf and colored glass.

Very interesting with numerous information boards in Swedish and English. There are also films in various languages several times a day, including German. The entrance fee is 220 SEK per person (07/2024). Tickets can be purchased in advance online or on site at the box office.

The Strömbron is a 140 m long bridge in the centre of Stockholm, which connects the two districts of Norrmalm and Gamla stan. The bridge leads from the Royal Palace on the island of Stadsholmen to the southern end of the Kungsträdgården park.
