Exhibitions

The Tumba Paper Mill is a scenic and listed area, meaning it is preserved for its cultural history. It is a place where you can relax and learn about Swedish paper mill history.

On the mill site you will find four buildings with different uses and character. Each buildings presents part of the mill, the origins of banknote production and its history. You can also enjoy something to eat or perhaps buy a souvenir of your visit.

Flores Pretiosi - Flowers of value

Paper artist Cecilia Levy takes you on a journey where the landscape flowers, which adorn our Swedish banknotes, are brought to life in sculptures made from handmade paper. On view 26 October 2024 - 28 August 2025.
