Welcome home to Astrid’s
Visiting Astrid Lindgren’s childhood home is like stepping back in time.
Everything remains just as it was when Astrid was a child. The pump organ she didn’t want to practice on, the beautiful cushion she embroidered, the bed she was born in. All the other furniture, paintings, and kitchen utensils are still there. It almost feels as if Astrid and her three siblings might come running in at any moment to play “Sicken blås”!
A guided tour of the childhood home becomes a vivid story about Astrid Lindgren’s family and life on a farm at the beginning of the 20th century. Today, the house is a private residence owned by the family, and can only be visited through our guided tours.
Guided tours
From May to September, we offer daily tours for groups of up to 12 people.
The childhood home is privately owned and can only be visited through a guided tour. Please note, that the guided tour has an age limit of 8 years. We are unable to take infants and dogs on the guided tour, and we thank you for your understanding and for helping us create an atmospheric guided tour.
