Fredriksdal Museums and Gardens

Fredriksdal is an open-air museum and garden site in Helsingborg featuring relocated historical buildings including farmhouses, a bakery, and a schoolhouse arranged around an 18th-century manor house. The expansive grounds include diverse garden areas, meadows, and fields that create different zones for exploration.

This site was established in 1919 to preserve and relocate historic buildings from across Sweden to create a comprehensive record of rural Swedish life. The collection of structures documents various phases of agricultural development and village settlement patterns.

Traditional Swedish crafts and seasonal practices are demonstrated throughout the grounds, offering visitors a direct sense of how rural communities functioned. The various historic buildings showcase the daily life and work rhythms of different time periods.

Paved pathways throughout the grounds make it easy to navigate the site, and a cafe offers traditional Swedish dishes during your visit. Children can enjoy dedicated play and learning areas designed to engage them with hands-on activities.

The site features one of Sweden's largest rose gardens displaying hundreds of rose varieties that bloom from May until the first frost. Peak blooming typically occurs in July when most varieties reach their full display simultaneously.
