Fredens Hus, Sweden

In the spirit of Dag Hammerskjöld, the Fredens Hus (House of Peace) provides knowledge about peace issues with a broad perspective. The museum is a base for information and opinion-forming activities such as exhibitions and lectures for the general public, as well as broad educational programmes aimed at young people on issues of peace and conflict, human rights, racism, violence and sustainable development.

The Fredens Hus displays exhibitions on vulnerability, human rights and the Swedish peace activists Dag Hammarskjold, Folke Bernadotte and Raoul Wallenberg. They also conduct educational and recreational activities for young people, to work on issues related to prejudice, racism, discrimination and violence. The Swedish Inheritance Fund supports their project Breaking Stereotypes, in which the museum works hard to create new educational tools for low, intermediate, junior high and high school.

The Fredens Hus travelling exhibitions and current exhibitions are included in our exhibitions section.
