Around the World in 14 Unique and Historic Ice-Cream Shops

"Winning a Nobel Prize is difficult, but it comes with fame, fortune, and a fabulous banquet in Stockholm. Since 1901, geniuses and humanitarians have dined together at the Nobel banquet. Held in Stockholm’s City Hall, the event promises glamor and fabulous cuisine. Nobel ice cream provides both. Until recently, dessert at the Nobel banquet was always ice cream. The sweet dish typically consisted of layers of ice cream and fruit sorbet, with flavor combinations such as vanilla-raspberry and passion fruit–pineapple, formed into a bombe shape. Decorated with spun sugar and an edible N for Nobel, these bombes were presented with a bang. Traditionally, dessert at the Nobel banquets is served via a parade of servers with sparklers attached to their trays.  Though traditional, Nobel ice cream wasn’t permanent. After the year 2000, Nobel banquet chefs were allowed to make desserts other than ice cream. But while it’s no longer served at Nobel banquets, now anybody can try the famed ice cream. At the Nobel Museum, the attached bistro serves miniature vanilla-berry ice cream bombes. They’re decorated with spun sugar, cloudberries, and even your own golden Nobel medal. Perhaps one advantage over the traditional awards: These medals are made of chocolate." - ATLAS_OBSCURA

A good tourist place - at least for me as a research scientist. Learn a lot interesting stories out side of my field and in my broad field. I enjoying the film watching and also the gift shop is quite nice - but could be better to have more creative options - as this is in Noble Prize Museum.

I’m glad I visited the Nobel Prize Museum, but it didn’t quite meet my expectations. While there were some interesting exhibits, like personal items from Nobel laureates, I was hoping for more engaging displays. The museum is relatively small, and I found myself finishing the tour quicker than anticipated. It’s worth a visit if you’re nearby, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to see it.

Honestly, I found the Nobel Prize Museum a bit underwhelming. While the guided tour was informative and well done, the museum itself is quite small and doesn’t dive deep into the stories like I hoped. The closing time (5 PM) felt way too early—just as we were getting into it, we had to rush through the last parts. For 150 SEK, it didn’t feel like great value, especially if you’re not into detailed reading panels. Cool concept, but the execution left me wanting more.

Interesting spot to visit. We enjoyed learning more about the Nobel Prize and the history behind it. There were a lot of artifacts from the winners, but the some of the messaging was a bit too philosophical for my taste.I would have enjoyed a deeper dive into the work of some of the winners. The museum was also a lot smaller than I expected.

It is small and nice museum. At the entrance the ticket seller gave a notebook and pencil to my 14 year old son. It has 16 questions about the museum, after solving about 1 hour he gave him a prize. It is very good for children and teach many information. In the museum you can see the clothes or tools of noble prize winners.

The museum was very nice and beautiful but it lacks a bit more of interactive elements and mostly focuses on the Peace and Literature prices (even though there are things from all prices, but with more focus to those two). On the positive side, Wilson's original cloud chamber is there. Just for this its all worth going.

Nice place for researchers. They have an abundant collection of information of all the Nobel laureates and their field of research. Ticket is too expensive.

I did not enjoy this museum as much as I should've. But it isn't the museum's fault. Let me start with the audio guide. I thought it was great. It walked through all of Nobel's life and told you a lot about the museum. My only issue was my phone. Its battery was getting drained very quickly, so I'd keep that in mind if you want to use the audio guide. The rest of the museum was great. There were a ton of artifacts from all branches of science. The guide, however, was a little bit confusing regarding the numbering of some of the display cases. It was hard to determine which number referred to which object because there were so many all so close together. This served as my biggest source of anguish, as the rest of it was great. It was incredibly packed, so you had to maneuver with others to see some objects.
