Discover Skansen with our online audio guides

Let us take you on a guided tour around selected parts of Skansen. Listen and find out more about Sweden’s history, flora and fauna.

  • Three different walks are currently available, which take around one or two hours, but you can of course stay for longer if you discover other interesting places along the way. You can listen in Swedish, English, German, Spanish or French.

    Scan the QR code to hear the stories directly on your phone – there’s no need to download the audio guides. For the best experience, please use your headphones. Several of our historic locations have fixed opening hours, but even if you are unable to enter these buildings, you can still enjoy their surroundings.

    The audio guides work via our ‘Skansen_guest’ Wi-Fi network or your mobile operator’s data connection.

    You are welcome to comment on our guides or share your thoughts and ideas. There are several opportunities during the audioguides to fill in a feedback form.
