Built across 14 of the 20,000 islands that shelter the city from the Baltic Sea, Stockholm is undoubtedly one of the world’s most elegant capitals. It is also a haven of scientific thought, boasting the likes of Alfred Nobel, Carl Linnaeus, Jons Jacob Berzelius and more. On this tour, you will explore the scientific heritage of Stockholm, past and present. You will meet experts and learn about Sweden’s contribution to botany, astronomy, physics, chemistry and medicine.
Swedish inventor and industrialist Alfred Nobel established his prize to reward those who had “conferred the greatest benefit to humankind”.
In an evening lecture, Richard Webb will discuss some of the major scientific achievements celebrated by the Nobel prize. Hidden in the city and across the country is the Sweden Solar System: sculptures, installations and lights that represent the planets and moons of our solar system at a scale of 1:20 million. It is the world’s largest model of a planetary system, and turns Sweden into a giant science exhibit in its own right.
You will also stop by Vetenskapens Hus at the AlbaNova University Centre . You will get the opportunity to meet experts from the department of astronomy and see Scharmer's Small Solar Telescope, which is a scale model of the world's second largest lensed telescope and one capable of showing images of the surface of the sun.
You will return to the city centre having explored 300 years of science history and 1.3 billion kilometres of the solar system. Enjoy the city coastline with this morning’s walking tour. Start at Sweden’s largest art museum, the recently reopened National Museum of Fine Art.
