About Postmuseum

The Postal Museum in Stockholm tells the story of the Swedish postal service and has been housed since 1906 in the city's oldest post office in Gamla Stan. In the permanent exhibition, you can follow the development of the letter and the postage stamp over the centuries, complemented by changing special exhibitions. A particular highlight is the Lilla Posten area, where children can explore the postal system through play. The museum also has an extensive philatelic collection and a library, which underscore the cultural and historical value of communication.
