New Sweden Farmstead Museum, Museum farm in Bridgeton, New Jersey, United States.

The New Sweden Farmstead Museum consists of seven structures built using traditional Swedish construction methods and materials from the 1600s.

The museum opened in 1988 with the presence of Swedish royalty Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia, along with New Jersey Governor Thomas Kean.

The museum buildings represent the settlement patterns of Swedish and Finnish immigrants who established communities in the Delaware Valley during the 17th century.

After facing closure due to maintenance issues, the museum structures were relocated to Governor Printz Park in Essington, Pennsylvania, where they reopened in 2022.

Finnish settlers from this region introduced log building techniques that influenced construction methods throughout colonial America.
