Fodor's Expert Review Nationalmuseum

Sweden's leading art museum has an impressive collection of paintings, sculptures, prints, and other works of art and design. The emphasis is on Swedish and Nordic art, but other areas are well represented, particularly 17th-century Dutch and 18th-century French paintings. The museum is closed for renovations until 2018, but highlights from its collections, together with objects on loan from other institutions, are on display in rotating exhibits at Konstakademien (the Royal Academy of Fine Arts) at Fredsgatan 12. A second temporary location, Nationalmuseum Design, located inside Kulturhuset Stadsteatern at Sergels Torg, focuses on design and applied arts.
