The ornamental sculptor Axel Notini’s apartment in Stockholm is a fine example of a wealthy middle-class home at the end of the 19th century.
Axel Notini was one of the foremost stucco craftsmen in Stockholm during the latter part of the 19th century. The house that he built for himself is richly decorated with ornamental plasterwork both inside and out. He used to invite prospective customers to visit him at home so that he could show off his skills.
The plasterwork has been restored to its original condition and his dwelling has been furnished in a style typical of his class at the time. Visitors can see what a drawing room, gentleman’s study and master bedroom might look like in an upper-middle class apartment.
Guided tours can be booked all year.

In December last year BBC Fast Track visited Stockholm and I had the pleasure of keeping them company.
We walked in the footsteps of Lisbeth Salander and Mikael Blomkvist from the Millennium Trilogy. See the programme at BBC Fast Track.
You can also do the Millennium Tour in Stockholm. Follow along in Mikael Blomkvist and Lisbeth Salander’s footsteps while getting additional background information about the characters and the author. The walk starts at Bellmangatan 1, where Mikael Blomkvist lives, then passes the Millennium editorial office, Lisbeth Salander’s luxury apartment and many other locations mentioned in the books and films.
On the way you will also learn more about the history of Stockholm and the people who live here.
Visit The Stockholm City Museum for more information.
