Great experience! This museum has really nice impressionists collection - Claude Monet, Paul Cezanne, Vincent Van Gogh, Mark Chagall! Separate room is dedicated to Pablo Picasso, which have some of his famous works, for example "Family of acrobats with monkey".

Visited the Volvo museum back in March 2020 - just before Covid got bad. The museum itself is a bit outside Gothenburg so a taxi / Uber may be needed if not driving. The museum is absolutely fascinating, and the collection of both historic and modern Volvo cars is seriously impressive, as well as concept cars. I can highly recommend

Marbacka Minnesgard

Reviewed By 300kristak - Stockholm, Sweden

Marbacka is a place to visit when exploring Värmland. I liked the garden that was very well maintained and beautiful. If you want to know more about the life and work of Selma Laggerlöf, you should definitely take a guided tour that takes ca 45 minutes (this is the only way to get in the house). The guided tour was very informative and good.

IF NOT IN TROLLHATTEN - WHERE ELSE ? I am not the *regular* tourist, hanging froma camera - I am just a SAAB LOVER ! A member of the ResqueSaab,org for almost 10 years. And, of course, I drive a Saab 9.3 =Made in Trollhatten.... Why am I writing about Trollhatten from Sweden ? Well, I can think of just two reasons : 1) At my 3-rd Saab, I was anxious and depressed at the thought that the PEOPLE OF TROLLHATTEN do not love enough the Saab - to keep it safe, AT HOME ! ...hen I was relieved - Saab stayed at home ! The beautiful green burgh of the Highway Vikings ! 2) I love Sweden...from mmy Down - South Romania ...I wish I could see Trollhatten, again! sometime !

Aeroseum

This was a great tour. It's an underground museum, full of planes and it's mind-blowing reading through the plane assembling details. Learning about world wars and bombs. It's sweetable for all ages. I have enjoyed my vacation
