The capital city of Sweden combines modern attractions with historic charm. Kick off your stay with visits to Stockholm’s two UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Royal Palace Drottningholm (the residence of the royal family) and the magical Skogskyrkogården, or Woodland Cemetery. Stroll the cobblestone streets of Old Town and over the picturesque bridges that span the city’s canals. The 19th-century Skansen was the world’s first open-air museum and is still a premier place to learn about Swedish history.

The Great Synagogue of Stockholm is simple yet beautiful. It provides good information on the history of the Jewish community in Sweden and Scandinavia, offering a sobering exhibit on World War II.

Enjoyed the service and the atmosphere of worship, encouraging Word and service. Mix of Swedish with English translation. Great time!

An impressive church, in a raised graveyard that dominates its small corner but, not being on a main road, would otherwise be easy to miss. It’s an unusual orange brick with verdigris roof and details so is visually very striking.

This is what you might call a cultural "fun house for all ages." Here, you'll find a café, several floors dedicated to effectively entertaining a kid, and contemporary culture exhibits.

This blue Concert Hall was built in 1926 and is situated on Hötorget in the heart of Stockholm. It is neoclassical in style and home to the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra. It hosts also the annual Nobel Prize Award Ceremony and the Polar Music Prizes. Outside by the main steps is the Orpheus Group bronze fountain which was created by sculptor Carl Milles in 1936.

We visited Stockholm by chance when my husband was sent there at the end of our French vacation Fall of 2019. He had a day and a half to tour around. This cathedral was one of the places we visited. There was a free concert on this day, and that is always interesting to me to hear the organ and voices in different cathedrals in the world. I am an artist, so sat drawing during the concert. It was a wonderful experience, and many interesting things to see as one walked around in the space.
