Very interesting and educational! A small museum that you can take your time with... it's worth taking a guided tour. I particularly liked the short films that portray the 16 Nobel Prize winners. A little dry, but the significance of the Nobel Prize as an institution becomes clear! And definitely pay attention to the ceiling...

Karl XIV Johan (1763-1844) ruled Sweden and Norway from 1811 until his death. The equestrian statue was created by the artist Bengt Erland on behalf of Karl XIV Johan's son in 1854 to mark the 40th anniversary of the union of Sweden and Norway.
