About About the place

ArkDes, the Swedish Centre for Architecture and Design, is located on the island of Skeppsholmen in Stockholm, sharing a building with the Moderna Museet. The museum explores the history of architecture and design, with a particular focus on Swedish developments and their social context. Exhibits often delve into the relationship between architecture, policy, and the needs of the population. While the museum sometimes hosts large-scale temporary exhibitions, it also maintains a permanent collection of architectural models and displays. Visitors can expect a blend of historical perspectives and contemporary design explorations.

The cafe is a little place situated in the middle of the buzzing market of the city and is a cute little place with a really warm ambience and very nice and friendly people and staff. The food was great and had a lot of amazing local flavors. It was totally worth the visit and we really enjoyed the food and hospitality.

This iconic attraction of the city is really great and has FREE admission which was a great plus. The place has so much to offer for everyone that you won’t get bored for a second. The place is huge and offers so much to see. It is a great display of collectables which is truly educational.

We were so excited to visit this place but were thoroughly disappointed while reaching and looking at the mismanaged affair. The place was crowded with tourists and there was no system to arrange them. The staff was also very rude.. While making our itinerary, we included this place towards the end and thought that incase we are behind time, we will skip it. But thank God, we didn’t because it was one of the greatest places to visit. Easily accessible, conveniently located, gorgeous location and the easy navigation for the entire tour of this place made it much more fun and enjoyable. I will suggest everyone to please visit this place.
