Sundsvall, Sweden Museum

Top-rated.online cuts through the clutter, highlighting only the reviews that are most helpful, earn the most likes, or come from the most active contributors. We had some time to kill in Sundsvall and decided to check out this museum - what a good decision! Firstly, free entry is appreciated (although the toilets are 5SEK but they're pretty clean so it's understandable), the man at the desk locked our bags away for us, also free of charge. The art gallery has some really beautiful paintings and the history of the city is thorough and interesting with information in English and Swedish. The museum is bigger than expected too which is a nice surprise. The only downside is the collection of artifacts downstairs doesn't have an English description but you can't expect everything to be in English if you're in a country where it's not the first language Very interesting museum with a lot of varous exhibitons, showing history of the city. It is a pity that many descriptions are in swedish only. Yet even without understanding the written part - it is strongly recomended to visit it. A free museum connected to the City Library. Some exhibits are permanent and have been there for 30+ years, others change monthly. You'll find a ton of really interesting local history ad well as art and interactive exhibits for children. The perfect escape from the rain or cold, just a minute from the main bus station and downtown Sundsvall. You have to oay yo use their bathrooms, but kids can go for free in the children's book section. Check out the in-house cafe that serves traditional "fika"! The Cafe on first floor has best food and very helpful most excellent employees. 22/9/25. 4 pm. Free entrance and beautiful building. It also has a library. really enjoyed the visit. This is such a beautiful place. The building itself is worth seeing. Very bright and airy. I didn't have a huge amount of time there but I got to see lots of fascinating exhibits telling the story of Sundsvall and its environs over the years. There is no charge to get in. Great spot lots of the signs have English translated and kids really enjoyed the Peterson Findus experience. Great for a rainy day . The Kultur magasinet was a really relaxed environment, the displays we saw were both interesting and engaging. At the time of visiting there were three displays, an industrial display regarding the history of industry in Sundsvall. The second was a display on animals, I don't have children but I imagine this would be one of the better displays for the children to engage with. The Chief of Hõgom display was awesome, seeing one of the largest burial finds in Norrland was genuinely cool, alespecially with the pieces on display. At the time also there was a display called Carpe Lucem, The Women Who Caught The Light. It detailed the early stages of photography in Sundsvall and the women who enabled it. Last but not least is the architecture of the facility itself. There are port warehouses (hence the name, the culture warehouse) four buildings encapsulated within a glass roof which provides an indoor street between the museum and the public library and a small cafe and sitting area in the centre. I loved the design and overall quality of the facility, its well lit, stunning and a great example of well designed architecture that culminates in a phenomenal public experience.
