Not sure which ticket to choose?
For the majority of visitors, the standard digital entry tickets are the most practical choice for exploring the Viking collections and the Gold Room at your own pace. The high-priced guided options are specialized products intended for large educational or military history groups rather than individual tourists.
Large school groups or private parties (up to 30 people)
This is a specialized flat-rate private group tour; it is not intended for individual travelers who should stick to standard entry.
Compare rows ↓Visitors using the tourist transport network for transit
Provides transport to the museum area via the Hop-On Hop-Off network; note that museum admission is typically NOT included in this transport-only ticket.

4 things to know before your visit
- Entrance: The main entrance is located at Narvavägen 13-17; for step-free access, use the designated elevator to the right of the main stone steps. Once inside, head to the information desk to scan your digital ticket, which also includes entry to the Economy Museum within the same complex. Security is straightforward, but strict bag policies are enforced: any bag larger than 40x20x25 cm must be stored in the lockers on the lower ground floor. While strollers are welcome in most areas, they are not permitted inside the Gold Room for safety reasons; use the stroller parking in the entrance hall. To experience the popular Viking World exhibition with fewer crowds, arrive at the 10:00 AM opening during the June–August summer season.
- Price: As of June 2026, the official adult admission for the Swedish History Museum is 150 SEK. Partner prices from Tiqets and GetYourGuide are approximately 180 SEK, reflecting a small convenience markup for mobile booking. Admission is free for those under 19, and a 120 SEK reduced rate is available for students and seniors. The 50% 'Happy Hour' and 'Sunday student' discounts mentioned in older guides are no longer active; verify current seasonal evening hours on the official site before visiting.
- Discounts: Admission is free for children and youth under 19 years old. For adults, the official rate is 150 SEK (partners typically charge ~180 SEK). Students and seniors (65+) qualify for a reduced rate of 120 SEK daily with valid ID. Note that the free Wednesday evening entry (17:00–20:00) is seasonal (September–May) and is generally unavailable during the June summer peak when the museum closes at 18:00. Accessibility companions enter for free. All visitors eligible for free or reduced entry should register at the entrance desk; pre-booking is primarily recommended for paying adults during the busy summer season.
- Timing: Arrive early enough for security checks, ticket scanning and wayfinding.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to print my ticket for the Swedish History Museum?
No, digital tickets on your smartphone are fully accepted at the entrance. Ensure your QR code is ready for scanning at the front desk to avoid delays, especially during the busy June season.
What is the cancellation policy for museum tickets?
Official tickets are typically non-refundable. Booking through partners like Tiqets or GetYourGuide is recommended if you need flexibility, as they often provide a 24-hour cancellation window for a full refund.
Can I bring a backpack or large bag into the exhibitions?
Backpacks and bags larger than 30x20x10 cm are not permitted in the galleries for security and preservation reasons. Free lockers are available on-site, but they can reach capacity during peak midday hours.
How does free admission work for children and students?
Visitors under 18 usually enter for free, while students with valid ID receive a reduced rate. Even for free entry, you may need to obtain a 'zero-cost' ticket at the counter or online to comply with museum capacity limits.
Is there a specific entrance for pre-booked ticket holders?
All visitors enter via the main entrance at Narvavägen 13-17. While there isn't always a dedicated 'fast-track' lane, having a pre-booked ticket allows you to skip the ticket-purchase queue and proceed directly to the scanning desk.
What is the best time to visit to avoid the largest crowds?
To avoid school groups and large tour parties, aim to visit on weekday afternoons or immediately at opening. The 'World of Vikings' and 'Gold Room' are the most popular areas and should be your first stop to beat the rush.
Are guided tours included in the standard entry ticket?
Standard tickets cover self-guided access to all permanent and temporary exhibitions. Specialized guided tours, such as the Historical Army or School Group tours, require a separate booking and have strict scheduled start times.
