|
| The Nordic Museum is a museum located on Djurgården, an island in central Stockholm, Sweden, dedicated to the cultural history and ethnography of Sweden from the Early Modern age (which for purposes of Swedish history is said to begin in 1520) until the contemporary period. The museum was founded in the late 19th century by Artur Hazelius, who also founded the open-air museum Skansen, for long part of the museum, until the institutions were made independent of each other in 1963. The present building, the designed of Isak Gustaf Clason, was completed in 1907. Although it was intended as a national monument housing the material inheritance of the nation, it never was completed to the extent originally planned, three times the actual size. |
