That\u2019s the question everyone got the answer to in the summer exhibition \u2018The Road to Emil\u2019 at Astrid Lindgren\u2019s N\u00e4s in Vimmerby. In this playful exhibition, we foll ow the collaboration between Astrid Lindgren and Bj\u00f6rn Berg, with the help of a number of original drawings and paintings, diary entries and sketches.<br \/>\r\n<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"w-full\">\n\t<div class=\"flex flex-col w-full m-auto py-7 gap-7 inner-contain\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div data-aos=\"\" data-aos-duration=\"\" class=\"flex relative items-center justify-between w-full m-auto tablet:w-3\/4 tablet-sm:w-full tablet:flex-col-reverse desktop-sm:px-4 gap-7 \">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"flex flex-col items-start justify-center w-full gap-5 max-w-[40%] tablet:max-w-full\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"-demi text-darkGreen\">Emil in L\u00f6nneberga celebrates 50 years<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"text-black text-[20px]\">The Emil stories originated right here in Astrid Lindgren\u2019s N\u00e4s, where Astrid Lindgren grew up, which gives the exhibition a special resonance. In the exhibition film, Mark Levengood goes in search of the people who inspired Emil, Anton, Alfred and all the other characters. A private &#8211; and never before published &#8211; recording of Astrid Lindgren interviewing her father, Samuel August, is also included. The subject is of course Emil in L\u00f6nneberga, who turns 50 this year.\r\n<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"flex items-center justify-center w-full\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"object-cover w-full h-[30rem] mobile-sm:h-[16rem] mobile:h-[18rem] rounded-lg\" src=\"https:\/\/astridlindgrensnas.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/vagen-till-emil-2013-21.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div data-aos=\"\" data-aos-duration=\"\" class=\"flex relative items-center justify-between w-full m-auto tablet:w-3\/4 tablet-sm:w-full tablet:flex-col-reverse desktop-sm:px-4 gap-7 flex-row-reverse\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"flex flex-col items-start justify-center w-full gap-5 max-w-[40%] tablet:max-w-full\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"-demi text-darkGreen\">Astrid Lindgren and Bj\u00f6rn Berg<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"text-black text-[20px]\">The exhibition \u2018The Road to Emil\u2019 tells the story of how Astrid Lindgren once upon a timer created the stories of Emil in L\u00f6nneberga and her successful collaboration with the cartoonist Bj\u00f6rn Berg.\r\nA number of original pictures drawn by Bj\u00f6rn Berg are included &#8211; the very first time his studies and sketches are being exhibited, those which led to the creation of all the characters in the Emil books.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"flex items-center justify-center w-full\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"object-cover w-full h-[30rem] mobile-sm:h-[16rem] mobile:h-[18rem] rounded-lg\" src=\"https:\/\/astridlindgrensnas.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/illustration.png\" alt=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"seasons":[],"class_list":["post-5462","exhibitions","type-exhibitions","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"information":[{"is_show":false,"show_info":null,"store_info":null}]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/astridlindgrensnas.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibitions\/5462","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/astridlindgrensnas.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibitions"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/astridlindgrensnas.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/exhibitions"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/astridlindgrensnas.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibitions\/5462\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5472,"href":"https:\/\/astridlindgrensnas.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibitions\/5462\/revisions\/5472"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/astridlindgrensnas.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5462"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"seasons","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/astridlindgrensnas.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/seasons?post=5462"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
