Very interesting and educational! A small museum that you can take your time with... it's worth taking a guided tour. I particularly liked the short films that portray the 16 Nobel Prize winners. A little dry, but the significance of the Nobel Prize as an institution becomes clear! And definitely pay attention to the ceiling...

The statue of Nils Ericson (1802-1870) in front of the main entrance to Stockholm Central Station was the first of many we saw during our stay in the city. As a mechanical engineer, Nils Ericson designed and supervised the construction of a large number of canals and locks in Sweden (Albrektsund, Karlstad, Dalsland, Stallbacka, Säffle and Trollhätte). After 1850, he did the same for the state railway system. His more traditional bronze statue was inaugurated in 1893. Sculptor Johan Börjeson (1835-1910) depicted Ericson as a well-dressed gentleman in a relaxed pose. The seagulls show no respect to the great man.

The largest and busiest train station in Sweden and all of Scandinavia is Stockholm Central Station. Around 200,000 people arrive here by train every day, change trains and visit the shops. Another 250,000 people populate the underground passageways of T-Centralen, the hub of the Stockholm subway directly beneath the central station.
