Forests, meadows, waterfronts and major museums: Djurgården is Stockholm’s green island. Visit the Vasa Museum, the Skansen open-air museum, the ABBA Museum and the Gröna Lund amusement park, then stroll in the Rosendal gardens.
A royal hunting ground since the 17th century, Djurgården still belongs to the Crown. In 1891, Artur Hazelius founded Skansen there, the world’s first open-air museum, bringing together houses from all over Sweden.
