Millesgården Museum

Highly recommended and I knew nothing walking in. Great views of the river and incredible sculptures. Very interesting as well. English and Swedish signage available.

A fantastic garden with beautiful and impressive sculptures. Quite a fascinating collection and history. It was unexpected to learn about this place. Visiting the garden was a pleasure. There is a lovely cafe/restaurant inside the garden.

Not one of the better known attractions in Stockholm, but definitely worth a visit to learn more about one of the greatest sculptors of the last century.The perfect spot to visit on a beautiful summer day!

Picturesque! Really nice environment with a lot of plants and art. Nice play to relax. Free entrance the 6th of June.

Very unique museum and gardens in Stockholm. One of my favourites. The placement of it also tells a story.

Always love their exhibitions. Sculpture park is beautiful, especially in spring and summer. Be sure to pick a sunny day for the best experience :)

Remarkable place, a must visit in Stockholm, I learnt about Carl Miles for the first time, but what a legendary sculptor!

This sculpture park and museum is perhaps one of the most beautiful man-made places in the world. A must visit when in Stockholm: just pick a sunny day and take the bus that stops almost right at the front door. Nice cafe/restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating (can be reached right from the street also).

Take the orange line and get off Ropsten, you can take a bus or walk on a small bridge and right away turn right and walk up the hill just a little, there will be stairs on the right which will take you to the main road just keep walking to the right , about 2 km the entire trip. It took me more like 3km because I got lost so hence the detail review. 100sek or $15 to enter and when you take that first step inside...you have a "wow" feeling. I had this rush of air enter my lungs and I had to exhale slowly :) It's just so stunning. High up above water are these incredible sculptures, just feels so soreal, you feel small and just at ah. Perfect place to take your time and walk around, enjoy a book or a tea/coffee. Cafe is on the premises.

Fabulous A must see Allocate four hours including travel. World class esp if you love a sculpture garden as I do

Outdoor is another world, the real city is within the concept of the Milles couple that decided to create a surreal vision in a dynamic city, such as Stockholm. The incredible touch of the operas is a feeling you can have even in a cold winter. Must be seen.

Gardens are nice with cool views on stockholms. I am not a big fan of his work but some pieces were great though. The exhibition in the modern part of the museum was interesting too. Service in the café and museum was friendly! It seems far from the center but you can get quickly there with metro and bus.

Review is for lunch at the cafe - Millesgarden Lanthandel. Semi self-service but very friendly staffs who translated menus into English for me. Beautiful elevated view overlooking Europa & tjuren. Had a very sumptuous toast skagen (shrimp) and warm bread with roasted rosemary (complimentary). Worth a visit. Garden entry 150 SEK adult. Cafe/restaurant also has separate entry, mains price ranges from 100-200 SEK

Had a wonderful time here. It's an easy metro ride from central and a one stop bus ride and short couple of hundred metre walk. The garden, statues and interiors are simply wonderful. There's also an excellent bistro/cafe. Highly recommended. Allow 3 hours at least with transport.

Yummy food beautiful museum :) would love to come again on 6/6 free open house with events

Outdoor sculpture gardens are a weakness of ours. A particularly good collection with informative curation. Found ourselves making a point to revisit after 5 years away, and brought others with us who very much enjoyed it. Nice to catch a light meal at the museum cafe. If the weather is nice, worth the trip to Lidingö!

Very nice atmosphere, the garden felt like French Riviera. Particularly loved Milles's studio. Very original place.

Oh what an inspirational place, if only for the rambunctious owner Randy, who gave our tour group quite the entrance on our arrival! Kinda Gaudi-esque but without the Latino, newly married artist couple Carl and Olga Milles acquired a property 1906 on the cliff of Herserud high above lake Värtan on the island of Lidingö. Their intention was to build a home incorporating space for their art studios. And what wonderful artists pieces are houses in this romantic, esoteric garden from the naughty angel wearing a watch, the hand of god with a sprightly fellow on his fingertips to wearing a watch to majestic Poseidon overlooking the waters. The house was designed by architect Carl M. Bengtsson and was built 1908. During the following half-century Millesgården was expanded and developed in collaboration with Carl's half-brother, architect Evert Milles. Between 1911-13 the first addition was built, an open-air studio in the form of a loggia wing, intended to improve Carl's work environment. In 1936 Millesgården was constituted into a foundation, which was donated to the Swedish people. In anticipation of Carl and Olga's return to Millesgården, 1950 saw the construction of the spacious lower terrace with monumental replicas of free-standing and fountain sculpture from Sweden and the USA. The lower terrace houses Carl Milles' death, September 19, 1955 after the incredible riches his lifetime brought.
