Mycket trevligt. Snyggt och tydligt. Fin byggnad. Otrolig entrésal utan bärande pelare.

This museum offers fascinating insight into Nordic life starting from the 1500s and continuing with descriptions of Nordic life in each century thereafter. Another exhibition displayed British table settings, showing different cutlery and crockery as well as different dishes that were served in various centuries. British fashion (and its association with Nordic fashion) from various historical periods was also displayed. The second floor displayed Arctic life, particularly the influence of global warming and the melting of the Arctic ice. One this floor one was also able to visit a flat from the 1940s.

Riktigt fin atmosfär, otrolig byggnad, mycket intressanta utställningar, rekommenderas.
