Moderna Museet ("the Museum of Modern Art"), Stockholm, Sweden, is a state museum for modern and contemporary art located on the island of Skeppsholmen in central Stockholm, opened in 1958. In 2009 the museum opened the Moderna Museet Malmö in Malmö.
The museum opened in Stockholm on 9 May 1958, and opened a branch in Malmö in 2009, in a building that had housed the Rooseum centre for contemporary art.
My adventures always include local museums no matter if they're good or bad. In this case Moderna Museet is good. Very good, and you'll enjoy every moment as well. The normal exhibits are free to view. They also contain special exhibits which cost money to view. I recommend paying for one special exhibit along with seeing the free one. Walking around the museum outside is also a treat. You'll find sculptures and views. Don't pass this up while in Stockholm.

Situated on the lovely Skeppsholmen island, I recommand visiting the Moderna Museet (it is quite small, so it doesnât take long to visit) ; the permanent exhibition is free.

very impressive museum, I really like collection here! I also enjoyed their description/introduction in each room, very plain language and very educational!

Not as big as some of the modern art collections in some of the other big European cities, but a great modern art collection. Picasso, du Champs, Matisse, Mondrian, etc. Also good design exhibition. All in all good, pretty small but definitely worth a visit.

Ok but nothing special. Bit small. Some nice things. The 'Swedish architecture' expo was - to me - hard to follow. Chaotic layout. Nice atmosphere and location. No entry fee. Worth a quick visit.

Would highly recommend as a must see museum in Stockholm if one is into Art Museums. Can spend a lot of time here and I enjoyed walking around at my leisure. There is audio guides available which I would also recommend. Note to travellers, you cannot bring bags/backpacks into the museum. If you do they must be held in your hands, by your side or worn on the front of your body. There is also a closet area as soon as you walk in where you are welcome to leave your coats and bags.

One of the best modern art museums I've ever been to - fantastic works and loved the reading nooks. Also has a great cafe with reasonable (for Stockholm) prices

The modern and contemporary art displayed in Moderna Museet is probably not to everyone's taste; however, it is a 'must' visit if you are in Stockholm as it is an interesting museum located in a beautiful part of town; there are also separate buildings that are part of the museum, my favourite (in terms of architecture) is the Drill House.

If you like and interesting in modern art - moderna is for you #1 place to visit in Stockholm. Big territory, big collection, bookshop and very welcome atmosphere. We were lucky and saw collection of Eliasson works.

With the art + shop of nice things and books you can have a great buffee for small price.
Juraj KoneÄnĂœApr 18, 2018
To us itâs the best museum in Stockholm (without National museum, which was closed for renovation during our stay there). Free admission to permanent collections, good quality and large quantities of collections featuring Matisse, Modgliani, Picasso and so on. Spacious and quiet. Staff was very helpful and considerate.

Small collection spanning principally the latter 20th and 21st centuries - but well described and with some interesting pieces.
HH WMay 29, 2018
I don't like it. If you want good art then go to the Dali museum in Spain. The art is bad and the shop is boring. Not recommended!
Frank KummelMay 27, 2018
Great modern art collection. Free access to the permanent collection. We had a very nice buffet lunch at the restaurant.
Michael O'ByrneJul 13, 2018
Nice facility with interesting art, but personally, I would say itâs not for me. Quite abstract. Thereâs the free exhibition, which is the permanent exhibition, and also the paid one. I went to the free one so Iâm not sure how the other one was. They had lockers to store your stuff.
