Ljungbergmuseet, Art museum in Ljungby, Sweden.
Ljungbergmuseet is an art museum in the town of Ljungby that displays paintings, drawings, prints, and tapestries created by artists Sven Ljungberg and Ann Margret Dahlquist-Ljungberg. The collection spans multiple styles and techniques, offering a broad view of visual art from the twentieth century.
The museum opened in 1990 in a building designed by architect Pontus Ljungberg, making it a relatively modern addition to Swedish cultural institutions. In 2012 it received official status as the art museum for Kronoberg County.
The museum displays works that reflect how Swedish art developed over the twentieth century through local artists' perspectives. Visitors encounter Nobel diplomas and prints that show the artistic evolution across different decades.
The museum is open Tuesday through Friday from 12:00 to 17:00, with extended hours on Thursday until 19:00, and on weekends from 12:00 to 16:00. Visitors should plan their visit according to these hours, noting that late afternoon on Thursday offers the longest opening time.
The museum has placed double-sided signs featuring Sven Ljungberg's motifs along a walking route through the city, creating a connection between art and everyday urban spaces. These outdoor markers allow visitors to encounter artworks while exploring the streets of Ljungby.
