Make your Own Paper
Papermaking by hand is at the heart of the museum's activities. Our workshop is located in the Röda magasinet building, which also houses the exhibition on the history of paper. We make paper by hand with cotton pulp that we grind ourselves. Did you know that you too can make paper at the museum? It's easy, and our knowledgeable staff will guide you through the whole process.
Date and time
On Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays there is a Swedish tour at 14.00–14.40. Please ask at the reception desk if you are interested in participating in a tour in English.
Cost and booking
SEK 75 for adults and free of charge for children up to age 18. Trying your hand a papermaking during the tour costs SEK 50. We will send the sheet of paper to your home once it has dried. You can buy tickets for the tour in the main entrance/reception of the museum in the Oxhuset building on the same day from 11:00 onwards. First come, first served. No pre-booking.
