Stockholm Toy Museum on Skeppsholmen

Toys, memories and a sense of discovery

Stockholm Toy Museum på Skeppsholmen is a museum for anyone who likes toys, details and things to examine up close. Here old toys and nostalgia are at the centre – things that can awaken memories in adults and curiosity in children.

For children the visit often becomes a fun treasure hunt: recognizing figures, comparing how toys looked in the past, and finding small details in display cases and settings.

Best suited for

• Children from around 3 years old and up who enjoy looking, pointing and talking about what they see.
• School-aged children who enjoy history, collecting, figurines and small objects.
• Adults who want to share their own toy memories with the kids.

Younger children can come along too, but the experience is often better if they can manage walking around the museum for a while.

When to visit

The museum is a good choice when the weather doesn't invite a trip to the playground or a long walk. A weekday can feel calmer than the weekend if you want more time to linger at the display cases and talk.

Good to know

• The museum is located on Skeppsholmen in Stockholm, so it's easy to combine with a walk around the area.
• Expect an indoor visit where children discover by looking rather than running around.
• Always check current opening hours, tickets and practical information before you go.
