Rackstadmuseet, Art and crafts museum in Arvika, Sweden

The Rackstadmuseet exhibits local artworks and traditional crafts across multiple galleries, featuring permanent collections of paintings, ceramics, and textile creations from Swedish artists.

Founded in 1993, the museum preserves the legacy of the Rackstad Colony, a group of artists who settled in the region between 1898 and 1920.

The museum displays works from the Arts and Crafts movement, including pieces by Gustaf Fjæstad, who captured the landscapes of Värmland through various artistic mediums.

The museum welcomes visitors Wednesday through Sunday from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with special rates for students, pensioners, and groups of ten or more people.

Adjacent to the museum, Oppstuhage gardens complement the cultural experience with landscaped grounds that reflect the artistic traditions of the region.
