Why take this tour?
Waldemarsudde consists of a mansion, a gallery and the surrounding park and gardens. The mansion was once the home of Prince Eugen (1865 – 1947), the youngest son of King Oscar II and Queen Sophia. He had the Mansion built in 1903-1905 and had the Gallery added in 1913.
The prince was a leading landscape painter in his time, as well as an important art collector. Upon his death, the estate became a museum, with the ground floor reception rooms, such as the dining room and library, of the Mansion preserved and open to the public as well. The upper floors and the Gallery show work from the Waldemarsudde collection as well as temporary exhibitions.
