Free admission, nice cafe! I liked the exhibitions because I was curious to get to know Stockholm better. The exhibitions were chronological, and some of them were based on particular people and their lives, which was insightful. There's a small library as well.
Free entrance.
Recommend if you're traveling. Great exhibition and stories. Stuff is nice.

A lovely little surprise. Not only is this museum free but it was also not super busy.
Exhibits are well designed with enough items to keep you interested but not too much to overwhelm.
Highly recommend if you're into history.

Great free museum with fine exhibition material which will give you a lot of background on the history. I spent more then 60minutes there and I am not a big museum person. But is was worth it.
Lots of people. Lots to see. Free. Toilets. Lockers. Disabled friendly. Baby and child friendly. Art. Exhibitions. English. Swedish. Interactive. Fun. Dress up. Touch friendly. Games. Maps.
Lots of kids!! Food available.
No directions! Walking in the wrong order... needs signs! Too many people in your way.
Note: Don't use elevator unless you need it... you wait FOREVER and it's always full so it's better to just walk or run the 4 floors.

I visited the Stockholm Museum on a Sunday. It was a free entry. (I believe it is free from Thursday to Sunday). The museum covers everything right from Stone Age to the modern era. Everything is maintained really well and all information is written both in English and Swedish. It has 4 floors (Ground plus 3 more) and starts in chronological order. I loved the museum and you need at-least 3 hours to be there.
+ Free Entry
+ Extremely informative
+ Very friendly Staff
- Missing steps to follow a path, else you move round in circles (or miss you places)

Really good museum to learn more about Stockholm’s history. Admission is free but they are closed on Mondays. Located in a very convenient location next to Slussen train station.
I thought the exhibition divides the time period well and there are English signs on most of the exhibits.
Unfortunately audio guide seems to be only in Swedish. My most favourite part is the exhibition around the building history of the City Hall. There are many old pictures with detailed explanation in English and Swedish. This was presented through a screen where you can take your time to view each image. As with all museums in Stockholm, portable chairs are available so you can take your time!
Lastly I also think they have the best gift shop out of all the museums. Many interesting post cards and merchandise

For a start, it's FREE! This is a great option for visitors to Stockholm and residents, particularly in the current day and age of high costs of living.
Friendly staff at reception, who are very helpful, is a second positive.
The museum has lots on offer, in terms of history of the city over the past few hundred years. Very well illustrated with displays and not overwhelming with text. Perfect for the end of the day (bonus is that it's open till 8pm on a Tuesday).
