Nobel, una sorpresa!

Non ci aspettavamo un percorso museale così interessante, capace di ben evidenziare come Nobel, l’inventore della dinamite, abbia saputo dedicare le sue ricchezze agli ideali e al progresso scientifico.

Alla scoperta delle menti che hanno cambiato il mondo

Interessante museo interattivo che espone al suo interno oggetti appartenuti alle grandi menti che sono state insignite del premio più prestigioso al mondo. Macchine per scrivere, occhiali, provette tutto originale con biografie e curiosità. Vale la pena una visita, anche per i bambini.

Una meta che vale il viaggio.

Celebrazione dell’ingegno umano realizzata con la consueta maestria e precisione scandinavi. Dettagli, informazioni, filmati, cimeli, bookshop fornitissimo. Per tutti, e da non perdere.

Da visitare assolutamente

Abbiamo visitato il museo e abbiamo fatto la visita guidata che era stata fondamentale per introduci al museo soprattutto perché la ns guida è stata bravissima e ci ha coinvolto in tutti gli aspetti di questo museo che regala davvero tante emozioni!!!

Una chicca in centro!

Anche se piccolo questo museo si è rivelato una grande sorpresa! Qui vengono conservati tutti i cimeli donati al museo dei Nobel dagli stessi vincitori del premio o dalle loro famiglie oppure oggetti appartenuti allo stesso Alfred Nobel. Noi personalmente abbiamo visto la penna di Quasimodo e un altro strumento utilizzato da Giorgio Parisi. Inoltre il museo è super interattivo! Ogni vetrina ha un proprio schermo dove tu puoi cliccare e ti appaiono tutte le informazioni relative all'oggetto e alla persona a cui è appartenuto. C'è anche un angolo bambini dove i piccoli possono giocare in tutta tranquillità mentre gli adulti si godono la visita al museo. Anche se l'entrata è un po' cara (ci sono comunque molte riduzioni, i ragazzi fino a 15 anni non pagano e gli anziani spendono la metà del biglietto intero) è valsa veramente la pena visitare questa chicca nel centro di Stoccolma!

Museo istruttivo

Piccolo museo che raccoglie vari strumenti delle scoperte che hanno portato a vincere i premi nobel, video che spiegano , molto coinvolgente

Piccolo museo che racconta la storia di un genio dimenticato

Il museo in questione è uno dei tanti che è bene visitare se si alloggia nella capitale Svedse: il museo è veramente piccolo, sinceramente mi aspettavo un edificio più grande considerando la grandezza della persona a cui è dedicato. Ma ciò nonostante sarete accolti cordialmente dallo staff del posto che vi condurrà alla visita della galleria, nella quale sono presenti molte illustrazioni dei vincitori dei premi nobel e ciò che hanno fatto per meritarselo. Consiglio veramente la visita se si è interessati alla storia e alla scienza.

Bella esperienza!

Museo posizionato nella storica piazza Stortorget, famosa per il mercatino di Natale a dicembre. Per fortuna non ho seguito lo sconsiglio del blog di viaggio consultato in fase di pianificazione del nostro soggiorno a Stoccolma ed ho deciso di visitarlo! Essendo in compagnia di due figli adolescenti, il timore che non apprezzassero e si annoiassero era in agguato, invece... Ho scoperto che ognuno secondo i propri interessi personali (chi più medico/scientifico, chi più letterario/artistico) ha trovato questo museo estremamente interessante, tanto che ad un certo punto ci hanno mollato da soli, girando autonomamente con l'audio guida scaricata sul cellulare. Costo adeguato e prezzi ridotti per studenti e under 18 ( noi 350sek in 4). È presente anche uno spazio ludico per i bambini ed un bar ristoro interno... Guardate sotto le sedie... Consigliatissimo!

Piccolo ma bello

Ottima meta alternativa a Stoccolma. Storia ben narrata e parecchi contenuti multimediali. Bel museo che offre anche alla sera cena al suo interno.

Interesting Museum

This interesting small museum, as the name suggests concentrates on exhibits relating on the Nobel prize awards. It is situated in the Stortorget Square and occupies the former Stock Exchange Building Opening hours are 10.am to 7.pm daily apart from Friday which is 10.am to 9 pm

Small but fairly impactful

This museum was on the smaller side, and did not quite meet our expectations though it still contained several panels and displays of interest. One of these was Gorbachev's cane (from the Peace prize). They explained the six categories, i.e. peace, chemistry, physics, literature, medicine, and the most recent one, in economics (wasn’t part of the original six). I recall that one of the newer sections was about AI and computer science (in the literature category), and where humanity might be heading – it raised quite a few moral questions, to say the least! Near the end of our visit, we saw this separate section all about the life and work of Alfred Nobel, which was very attention-grabbing.

Alfred Nobel's noble legacy: this museum honors him and the laureates.

Small, but powerful museum. We were lucky to have Stephanie, an excellent young tour guide, who described the history of the Prizes, from the direction of Alfred Nobel's will, to the current selection process, to some of the most fascinating discoveries in medicine, chemistry, physics, along with contributions to literature, economics and peace. If you come with some knowledge of the hard sciences, you will love seeing Marie Curie's scale with which she weighed radioactive elements, or Barbara McClintock's ears of maize corn from which she derived her jumping genes theory of genetics. If you have stomach ulcers due to H. pylori, you will see the test tube which Barry Marshall used to infect himself. If you aren't so familiar with scientific concepts, there is a continuously running film which highlights 16 laureates in short videos. Each explains a concept or action which affects us today: how a Japanese researcher developed a method to produce stem cells, how investigators at Bell Labs confirmed the Big Bang theory, or how Gertrude Elion's work resulted in many drugs we all use today. There is less in the exhibition on the literature winners, but many of their books are in the gift shop. Also, there are interactive screens where you can look up your favorite author. We spent 3 hours, could easily have stayed longer. We really liked their bean soup and Swedish pancakes.

Highly recommend

We had the honor of having a private tour. The young woman who showed us around went above and beyond in her information and knowledge about the museum. It is currently a rather small facility, but definitely worth a visit.

Fun Museum!

This museum was great! I would dedicate at least 2-3 hours to see it all. While the museum is small there is much to see! There is truly a large variety of items and facts to learn scientifically and beyond. I took a free intro to the museum tour that we were asked if we wanted to join when buying tickets. I highly recommend this tour! Staff were friendly and willing to answer any questions.

An interesting museum

While it’s not the biggest museum, I did enjoy learning about the origins of the prize as well as some of its recipients. There were lots of artefacts that helped to make this an interesting and information museum with a reasonable entry fee. It’s probably not a museum for everyone (and there was an effort to include a section aimed at children), but anyone with an interest in academic pursuits would enjoy it. Don’t forget to look up in the final room as there is a rotation of all prize winners to keep track of.

Fascinating museum

What an amazing museum . We went with three kids and spent over 2 hours here . They have a kids area where they can do circuits , make paper helicopters and a kids information booklet to film out with a prize once completed. The information on prize winners is really interesting as is the section on Nobel himself . Definitely worth a visit .

Gem of a museum!

Plenty of museum choice in Stockholm but do not miss this one. Spent 2 hours here and loved all the stories about exhibits which have been donated by Nobel Laureates. The underside of the chairs in the cafe are signed by winners. This museum was a real surprise. Followed it up with visit to City Hall where banquet is held- recommend visiting museum first.

Try the Nobel Prize ice cream

Very interesting museum which provides considerable information about the Nobel Prize process and winners. The bistro serves a "Nobel Prize ice-cream" which is definitely worth trying!

A must see in Stockholm

This is an absolutely must see place if your value human endeavour and advancement. It is a really well laid out set of exhibits covering the Nobel Prize categories with original experiments and fasinating note books from many of the recipients of the prize. It was a really unexpected experience and one we are so glad we saw. We are in no way science nerds ( well abit) but it covers so much more than that . There is a really good video covering many of the Nobel Laureates and not just science ( For example Betty Williams and Mairead Corrigan who got the Peace Prize in 1976) Highly recommended and very moving.

Superb place

Absolutely top place to visit in Stockholm . Very nicely curated museum with some excellent displays and rit bits about the history of the Nobel Prizes over the years . Located in the heart of Gamla stan within walking distance of the Royal palace . Allow for at least an hour inside to enjoy it fully

Impressive museum… inspirational

Lots of amazing and interesting exhibits. The free audio tour was excellent. Would be better if the audio exhibits were more clearly labled and easier to find. Check the chairs (bottom) in the bistro for award recipients signature. We spent 2 hours and enjoyed it quite a bit.

Great place for great minds

A very interesting arena for some of the greatest minds in history from the early 1900s and onwards. Very well organised museum but way smaller than expected hence the new one later on I guess. Well worth a visit .

Fabuleux !

Ce petit musée regorge de pépites et d’objets donnés par les lauréats. J’ai trouvé ça passionnant. On y mange aussi Tb et chose rare à Stockholm ils ont du thé en vrac de leur propre blend dans des sachets de thé. Donc là où on ne trouve que du lipton ici c’est une parenthèse enchanteee pour les thé addict après la visite du musée

Fantastic Museum

This museum is a must see if you visit Stockholm. I learned a lot and how gjly recommend this museum.

Be sure to visit the Nobel Prize Museum in Stockholm

Great museum - inspiring and informative. We highly recommend the 45-minute English language tour. Our tour guide David conveyed so much interesting information during this tour about Alfred Nobel and the awards. We had not planned to go ahead of time, but it turned out to be a highlight of our time in Sweden.

Bra organiserat museum.

Audio guiderna fungerade synnerligen bra. Man kunde välja själv vilka avsnitt man ville lyssna på beroende på vilken monter man stod vid. Det blev snabbt enformigt med samma röst och upplägg. Mängden av pristagare (6 st/år) i 125 år blir en del. Objekten som visas är pristagarnas egna bidrag/gåvor som relateras till priset. De avsnitt med en cliffhanger var bäst.

Une visite qui s’impose à Stockholm

Une visite des plus informatives et très agréable grâce aux services d’un guide privé qui nous a permis de comprendre tout sur le sujet.

Cool but could be more elaborate!

The concept of this museum is cool. It’s quite small and has lots of items that cover all the categories of prizes. The gift shop and the children learning area was the funnest part.

Not bad but maybe a missed opportunity

Small but quite informative museum. English speaking guide was good. Plenty of different areas to explore. Would have been better with more things to see and more written about the different objects.

An interesting museum about the world-famous Nobel Prize!

The Nobel Prize Museum is dedicated to exploring the history of the Nobel Prize and of the laureates who have won it over the last 120 years or so. Established by the Swedish businessman and inventor Alfred Nobel, the prize is divided into several categories, namely Chemistry, Physics, Physiology/Medicine, Literature and Peace. Since the late 1960s, there has also been a Prize in Economics, which was not stipulated in Nobel's will and is not officially considered one of the Nobel Prizes. Over the years the Nobel Prize has been awarded to remarkable individuals such as Albert Einstein, one of the most influential physicists of all time, William Butler Yeats, one of the 20th century's greatest poets, Robert Koch, one of the founders of modern bacteriology, Marie Curie, a pioneering researcher of radioactivity, and Malala Yousafzai, a human rights and female education activist who is also the youngest Nobel Prize winner in history. Many people consider the prize an incredible honour, yet the prize committees, for various reasons, have not seen fit to honour such towering figures in their fields as Leo Tolstoy in literature and Mahatma Gandhi in politics. Despite these and other controversies, the prize is indeed an enormous mark of prestige and in the permanent exhibition "These things changed the world", you will see a collection of artefacts from Nobel Prize laureates and through them you will learn how the discoveries and successes of the prize winners have helped improve our lives. The Nobel Prize Museum also holds temporary exhibitions and the current one is on the topic of "Fighting disease." It tells the story of how a scientist, a doctor and a nurse are working to prevent and cure disease through a documentary film dedicated to each individual. Tickets to this attraction cost around £12, which is good value for money if you're really interested in the history of the Nobel Prize. However, if you're more of a casual visitor, you might not spend too long here, so you should consider whether to visit if you're only spending a couple of days in Stockholm as you might find the Vasa Museum or the Nordic Museum more interesting.

Respect for this institution it‘s so fantastic

It was so interesting to see all winners by pictures. So touching to see all the good developments from all over the world at one place. It's amazing what you can do with money, respect!!!

Worth every minute spent there!

Very worthwhile stop on our trip to Stockholm. Great way to reaffirm our belief in the power of new ideas and the persistence needed to truly accomplish great things! Great guide - worth the investment of time! I think it even gave some perspective to our "skeptical" teen daughter!

New facts found!

A smaller museum which, in my opinion, was a welcome change. We were able to look more thoroughly at the exhibits. I felt the museum was well laid. I certainly learnt a lot and had not expected to. We came across it by accident when exploring Gamla Stan but would recommend.

Quite interesting - for a short visit

We were there for opening time – it got fairly busy and this is a small museum on a single floor. We were lucky enough to get a short in person tour, that was insightful and we learned some interesting facts about the items that some Nobel prize winners donated to the museum.. the DAZ bottle anecdote was sweet!

Worth a visit.

Good small museum. I would suggest to time it with their free museum explanatory tours that happen at regular frequency and the details can be received from the ticket counter itself. Ideally one can explore the museum and its various exhibits and videos screenings better, once they have the context from the tour. Very interesting collection of personal items donated by the winners across decades. The older kids will also like it. A treasure hunt based around the museum is also interesting.

Well worth the time - but bring headphones and your phone for the free audio guide

Definitely find out when the tour is happening as it gave a lovely insight into the Nobel, the prizes and the winners. The guides were very enthusiastic and brought some of the winners to life. There is also a free downloadable audio guide - so bring your headphones - and listen to some short clips about 20 or so prize winners. Some really interesting donations from past winners and a chance to learn a little bit more about them.

Very informative

This museum was well set up with informative exhibits. I learned a lot without being bored. It is fairly small so an hour should give you enough time to go over everything. It was a bit hot though as it was fairly busy but it seemed they do not have air conditioning. If this type of thing interests you I recommend giving it a go.

Very interesting & positive museum celebrating those that have done good in the world

Fascinating museum, all our family loved it including 3 teenagers. The significance of the prize & the history of it all is so interesting. Some of the people highlighted have done amazing work. The free guided tour is worth timing your visit for.

Eine Aneinanderreihung von Anekdoten…

… was die verschiedenen Nobelpreisträger mal privat toll fanden oder was sie sonst so beschäftigt hat. Und so kommt es dann auch dass man eine Packung Waschmittel zu sehen bekommt weil einer der Nobelpreisträger öfter mal Zeit zum Nachdenken im Waschsalon hatte. Oder : man sieht die Werkzeugkiste, auf der Lech Walesa mal gestanden hatte, als er in der Danziger Werft seine Reden geschwungen hatte. Nun ja, das ist zumindest mal ein origineller Approach an nobelpreiswürdige Leistungen. In einem Seitentrakt entdeckt man dann tatsächlich auch Alfred Nobel selbst und einige Informationen über sein Leben. Er war selbst nie verheiratet und hatte keine Kinder, weshalb er niemandem etwas zu vererben hatte und folgerichtig die Stiftung gegründet hat, die heute pro Nobelpreis 1 Million $ ausschüttet.

Pleasant, if small

An interesting museum and nicely designed. Lots of information and inspiring stories to learn about. Not a big museum, but certainly interesting. There was a heavy focus on the science side of things (naturally, they make up half of the categories), but it would be nice to see some more focus on the other awards (literature etc.) in the exhibits. The benches in the little cinema space might be considered a form of torture in some countries. Overall, a nice place to spend a couple of hours.

Exploring stockholm Sweden

This museum is small,but is really interesting has a lots of history,prices is reasonable no waiting time bought the tickets on the spot, if you like sciences this is your place to visit

Significant awards, fascinating history

A small but highly-interesting museum, with a varied range of displays. It covers the story of Alfred Nobel and the history of the Nobel prizes, and also some of the scientific and social advances that have been honoured with an award. There’s material on some of the individuals and institutions that have been honoured too. Given the global significance of the Nobel prizes, it seemed wrong not to go whilst in Stockholm, and I’m glad that I did. Visited early morning and it was getting busy as I left.

Nobel

Ett besök med mycke historia och kunskap, detta besök är väldigt värt. Jag rekommenderar att ni besöker detta Museum tack

Small but full of fascination

Small museum but can easily spend a couple of hours here reading through exhibit contents. And learning about the lives of winners and how selection committees work. I found it all very interesting. There were a couple of school groups but they were engaged with their projects.

A Visit to the Nobel Prize museum

Visiting the Nobel Prize Museum was an enriching experience that I’ll never forget. The museum itself is a treasure trove of knowledge, innovation, and humanity’s brightest achievements. Thanks to the tour guide Samuel for guiding us through the museum with clarity, energy, and humor, making the experience not only educational but enjoyable. He gave us a concise yet fascinating overview of the Nobel Prize’s history—how it began with Alfred Nobel’s vision, and how it evolved into the world’s most prestigious recognition of excellence in science, literature, peace, and beyond. So if you’re a history lover, a science enthusiast, or just someone curious about the stories behind the world’s most celebrated minds, the Nobel Prize Museum is absolutely worth a visit. And if you’re lucky enough to be guided by Samuel, you’re in for a truly memorable experience.

A nice, informative, small museum

What an interesting small museum in the old section of Stockholm. Here you can learn about the nobel prizes, mainly except for the peace prize (which has its own museum in Oslo - but there are still some beautiful quotes from Nobel peace prize winners, such as MLK Jr.). Here you can also learn about Albert Nobel who did not have children and left his fortune for these prizes. When you are in the old part of the city, stop in for about 30-40 minutes. It is worth the visit.

Well worth a visit

An interesting museum, well curated and displayed. If available, take the guided tour, as that is very helpful in understanding the museum concept plus points out some items from more ‘famous’ prize winners

Un museo de la humanidad

Este museo es muy importante en la historia de la humanidad, reflejando gran parte de los avances científicos a través de los premios Nobel. El museo en si es pequeño, pero tiene muchas piezas de los estudios realizados por los Nobel. También pantallas interactivas dónde se ve la información de los ganadores (y se refleja la inequidad de género histórica). Si te gusta la ciencia o la historia es recomendable para ti.

Great Museum

We visited this museum and joined the English Guided tour which is well worth it. It cost 150 SEK to enter and included the guided tour and some short films on some of the winners. It really is interesting.

Worth a visit!

We enjoyed checking out this museum about all the Nobel prize winners and the selection process and ceremony. The artifacts from the different winners were quite interesting. I especially liked the ones from their hobbies which often gave them the intellectual break they needed for their breakthroughs to surface.
