Take a break from your day, whether at home or work, to be immersed in a Scandinavian cultural experience. Each field trip experience is 45 minutes long and presented over Zoom. $5 for members and $10 for nonmembers.

Join us on a tour through Skokloster Castle with curator Petri Tigercrona. Skokloster Castle is one of the ambitious projects built in 17th century Sweden. The field marshal Carl Gustaf Wrangel was born in the old house at Skokloster and commissioned this great house. Skokloster was used as a summer residence, ending up more or less a time capsule, with interiors virtually untouched since the 1670s!
