The Nordic Museum on Djurgården in Stockholm was designed by Isak Gustaf Clason. The article names no client, but Artur Hazelius founded the museum. The infobox gives 1873, the year it began as the Scandinavian Ethnographic Collection. The text says the present building was completed in 1907 after a 19-year construction process.
The article describes a Dutch-influenced Danish Renaissance style with a cathedral-like core. It has brick and granite walls and a concrete roof. The main hall is 413 feet (126 m) long. The building was never finished to its planned size, which was about three times the built size.
The museum became independent from Skansen in 1963. It is a museum of Swedish cultural history and ethnography with over 1.5 million objects and had 237,964 visitors in 2015. The article gives no hours or ticket details.
