Museum of Östergötland

The Museum of Östergötland is a regional museum in Linköping displaying collections on art history, archaeology, and cultural heritage from different periods. The exhibitions spread across multiple floors with galleries dedicated to regional development and traditional crafts.

The building was designed in 1939 following functionalist principles and underwent extensive renovation to meet contemporary exhibition standards and conservation requirements. These updates allowed the museum to display larger collections and provide proper conditions for delicate artifacts.

The main gallery tells the story of how people in Östergötland lived and developed over thousands of years, shaping local identity today. You can see this through everyday objects and discoveries that show how communities adapted and changed.

The museum features a shop, rooftop dining area, and research library available for visitors to use. These facilities are easy to locate and make for a comfortable extended visit.

The institution oversees several heritage sites beyond the main building, including Löfstad Castle near Norrköping and the Sancta Birgitta Monastery Museum in Vadstena. Visitors can extend their exploration by visiting these connected locations across the region.
