Toy museum at Visingsö

On Visingsö, you will find a unique toy museum in Säby on the northern part of the island, just five hundred meters north of Tempelgården. Here you will find dolls, dollhouses, teddy bears, wooden toys, trains, cars, bookmarks, and much more from 1870 to the present day.

This year, Visingsö Leksaksmuseum has fairy tale books and children's books as its theme. Reading among school children has become a highly relevant topic, which the museum captures with books from the 1890s to the present day.
