Malmö museum, Art museum in Malmö, Sweden.
Malmö Museum occupies a 1937 building within the castle complex and displays artworks across multiple floors and galleries. The collection includes paintings, sculptures, and applied arts spanning different periods and regions.
The museum was founded in 1841 and began as an art collection in the city. It expanded significantly after the 1914 Baltic Exhibition, when it acquired important works including Russian fin-de-siècle paintings for its permanent holdings.
The permanent exhibition displays artworks from Scandinavian and Baltic artists, showing how creative expression developed across this region over centuries. Visitors can observe how local and regional artistic traditions took shape and influenced each other.
The museum offers free admission for visitors under 18 years old, making it accessible to younger audiences. Guided tours are available and help explain the displayed artworks in greater detail.
The collection holds around 40,000 works, including significant Nordic modern art pieces and works by Swedish artist Carl Fredrik Hill. This extensive assembly makes the museum an important place for understanding Nordic art history.
