Blekinge museum

Blekinge Museum is a county museum in Karlskrona that collects and displays objects, documents, and exhibitions about the regional history of Blekinge. Its collections document how this part of southeastern Sweden developed across different time periods.

The museum was founded in 1899 to preserve the material history of Blekinge County. Over time it has accumulated objects that show how this region changed under different social and economic conditions.

The museum displays regional crafts and artworks that reflect the daily life and creativity of people in Blekinge. Its exhibitions connect visitors with the local traditions and artistic practices still alive in the area today.

The museum is easy to navigate and gives you time to explore the objects and read information about each one. Guided tours in several languages are available if you want more background on the collections.

The museum runs an annual photography contest called Årets Blekingebild where local photographers share their personal views of the region. These works show how people today see the landscape and daily life in Blekinge.
