Skansen open-air museum, Stockholm: Emanuel Swedenborg's summerhouse and the Rose Garden

NOTES: This open-air museum, one of the world's first, was established by Artur Hazelius (1833-1901) and opened in 1891. Historical buildings (homes, farms, windmills, a school and a church) from nearly every part of Sweden have been acquired and re-erected on the site. This summerhouse, erected at Skansen in 1896, comes from the estate in Stockholm that the famous philosopher and scientist, Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772), purchased and lived in from 1743.
