Museums & Art Galleries

Uppsala's museums reflect the city’s legacy as Sweden’s intellectual and royal hub. The collection features the 16th-century Uppsala Castle, the Gustavianum’s historic anatomical theatre, and the Linnaeus Garden, the country's oldest botanical garden. Visitors can explore Scandinavia’s largest fossil collection at the Museum of Evolution, view the 6th-century Silver Bible at the Carolina Rediviva library, and discover regional history inside a former watermill at Upplandsmuseet. Art offerings range from contemporary works at the Uppsala Art Museum to the preserved home and studio of sculptor Bror Hjorth.
