Did you know:

• The museum is situated in Stockholms oldest industrial building – Kronobageriet. Before it was turned into a museum in the 1970s it served as a bakery for over 300 years. Hence the characteristic shutters on the windows, which originally served as vents.
• The museum also houses the Music hall of Fame.
