In exquisite company
Rolf de Maré, who lived between 1888 and 1964, was a visionary and the founder of the Swedish Ballet, a groundbreaking ballet company in Paris. Like his grandmother Wilhelmina, whose home is now the Hallwyl Museum, Rolf was a lover and collector of art. He surrounded himself with the cultural elite of his time and had both the courage and the means to follow his heart and pursue forbidden love in an era when same-sex relationships were illegal.
Through a series of portraits by artist Niklas Blomkvist, we encounter Rolf – his friendships and romantic partners.

Accessibility

If you choose to join a guided tour of the house, it involves climbing and descending at least 103 steps.
