ABBA: The Museum
A piano in this room plays itself the moment Benny sits down at his piano at home.
Coming soon on iOS — be first to walk Stockholm offline.
Stage costumes donated by all four band members, a full recreation of the Polar Studio where ABBA recorded their later albums, and live-wired instruments that still connect to the band. Interactive audio and video stations let you perform the songs. The Ring Ring phone sits on display — only the four members know its number.
What to look for
- Benny's Piano — a self-playing instrument linked in real time to his home keyboard
- The Waterloo room, dressed as Brighton during the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest
- The Polar Studio replica, showing the actual gear from ABBA's later recording sessions
On Djurgården island, near the Gröna Lund theme park; opened May 2013.
