School holidays

We run a range of playful programs that bring the stories in the Hallwyl House to life. Special holiday activities are released a few weeks before each school holiday.

Audioguide

Just how did Wilhelmina and Walther von Hallwyl, Sweden’s richest couple, live a hundred years ago? And what about all those who worked in the palace, their servants? You will hear all about this in the recorded audio tour, which also explains how each room in the house was used. The family recorded audio tour is recommended from 6 years of age, but is suitable for any age.
