Swedish-language Podcasts from Museums (and more) in Sweden
Swedish culture goes deeper than Ikea
Like other Scandinavian countries, Sweden is lumped into Vikingland and the family of languages with its lilting tones and singsong rhythms. Its most famous export is IKEA, but there’s so much more to Swedish heritage than cheap furniture aesthetic.
The Archives Podcast
The Viking reputation is there for a reason… and The Archives Podcast doesn’t shy away from the stereotype by dedicating its content to the subject of exploration and the great explorers of the world. Information comes from archives, libraries, museums, and other curious places — if you can’t physically explore, doesn’t mean your mind can’t.

The Riksantikvarieämbetet (Swedish National Heritage Board)
The National Antiquities Office is responsible for keeping cultural heritage alive. Each episode is unique by subject matter, depth, and individuals featured — and not necessarily limited to Swedish museums. Everything from digital humanities, runes, textiles, archaeology, to Nordic culture.
