Our Charter

The galleries cover around 10,000 m2 and the Museum attracts more than 300,000 visitors every year.

The Museum´s charter comes from two directions: the Foundation in the form of its articles of association, and the Swedish state in the form of the appropriation directions from Sweden´s Ministry of Culture. These conflate with and complement each other.

Appropriation directions

The goal is to preserve our cultural heritage. The National Museum of Science and Technology aims to develop and communicate knowledge about and experiences of our cultural heritage and thereby provide perspective on societal development.

The Foundation´s articles of association

The charter of the Museum is to shed light on development within the engineering arts and their basic sciences and within industry. Within these fields, the Museum is to both pursue and promote scientific research and documentation, and to conduct educational and information activities.
