Djurgårdsskolan, School building in Djurgården, Stockholm, Sweden
The yellow wooden school building features a dedicated art studio, textile workshop, and wood crafting facilities integrated within its classical architecture.
The educational institution, designed by architect Axel Kumlien in 1878, stands as one of Stockholm's oldest schools in continuous operation.
The school adopted a peacock as its symbol after one wandered inside from the nearby Skansen open-air museum many years ago.
The facility maintains its own gymnasium, prepares fresh meals in an on-site kitchen, and emphasizes environmental sustainability through food waste management.
Students at Djurgårdsskolan participate in outdoor education programs through regular collaboration with the neighboring Skansen museum complex.
