Here we collect stories about museums around the world that we think are special and worth experiencing. Every time we write about a cool museum, we put it here.

Museums in the world
Museums of the world can be found on freedomtravel.se, a digital site that takes you all over the world. We want to make it easy for you to find cool experiences in different parts of the world, and that can sometimes be a museum. We'll be adding to it over the years because we travel eight months of the year. Museums of the world also includes open-air museums and cultural museums.

Museums in the world
We at FREEDOMtravel.se have been to most countries in Europe and a lot in the rest of the world and we write down what is most interesting. Museums are very often wonderful experiences, but can also be very boring and we have excluded them on this page. We're thinking of the goodies in museums but, like the pastry, it's a mixed bag. We don't like too much text because after 20 minutes you're stuffed and you can't take in any more info. We only help you if it's worth seeing and you get some information about what you want to experience.
Do you have any tips for museums in the world?
We are travelling around the world and maybe there are some special museums in some countries that we haven't written about and that you would like to share. Perhaps there is too little information online that we can find out about. Please write and tell us!
Museums in the world
This page is constantly being added to and is an avenue for those who are a little curious and inquisitive about the information that many museums can provide. We think that interactive museums are the best ones where you can participate yourself. New museums will be added to this page regularly!
