Visit to Skansen and Conference dinner at the Solliden Dining Room
Wednesday, 29 October 2008
Skansen is the world's oldest open-air museum and is situated
on the island of Djurgården a few minutes away from the centre of Stockholm.
Visitors to Skansen meet a miniature historical Sweden reflected both in the
buildings and their surroundings - from the Skåne farmstead in the south to the
Sami camp in the north. The venues illustrate the different social conditions
in which people lived in Sweden
between the 16th century and the first half of the 20th century. The majority
of houses and farmsteads are from the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries.

The visit to Skansen will be followed by the conference dinner at the
Solliden Dining Room. This is a beautifully decorated Stockholm restaurant
located on the premises of Skansen, with a fantastic view of the city. Dinner will be a traditional Swedish classic: the extensive
smorgåsbord.
