This sensational open-air museum is a snapshot of life in Södertälje and the eastern Södermanland in the 19th century.
The museum is divided between an urban (Staden) and rural (Landet) area and its big landmark is the Nora windmill (väderkvarn).
This dates to the 1770s and moved to the museum in 1929. Like most Swedish open-air museums the historic architecture has been rescued elsewhere and rebuilt here, and unlike Stockholm’s Skansen, it’s completely free.
