Excellent museum. I'll probably visit when my brother comes to see us in Helsinki in June.

Looks like a fascinating exhibition, wish I could visit! I think the model houses are the highlight.

A lovely museum and that looks like a great exhibition.

I'll be in England in late May, but I don't think I can add an excursion to Sweden.

Thanks for sharing. Quite the collection of board games it seems!
