Carl Larsson-gården

Carl Larsson-gården is an artist residence in Sundborn that preserves the original furnishings, decorations, and artworks inside a traditional Swedish house. The building stands on the banks of Sundbornsån river and shows how the two artists organized and lived in their space.

The property became home to Carl and Karin Larsson in 1888 after a gift from Karin's father gave them ownership. The two artists shaped and reshaped the house over the following decades, making it reflect their own ideas and tastes.

The home reflects the design choices Carl and Karin Larsson made together, showing how they mixed colors, furniture, and art into a personal living style. Visitors witness firsthand the interior ideas that later shaped how Swedish homes were decorated across generations.

Visitors explore the house through guided tours lasting around 45 minutes. Advance reservations are recommended, especially during the busy season from May through September.

The garden surrounding the house contains the exact plant species and hand-painted furniture pieces documented in Larsson's watercolor paintings. Visitors can compare the artworks with the real location and see how the artists depicted their surroundings.
