    If you are visiting Stockholm this is a MUST. I haven't been disappointed once. The exhibitions are so unique and vivid, every photo here is carefully selected by the artist. Best photo museum in Euro

    One of the top places to visit in Stockholm, especially if you're into visual arts. Not only it has the best exhibitions, but the architecture of the building itself and interior design are stunning!

    Fotografiska is most famous for their excellent photo exhibits but they also house a top restaurant with what might be the most scenic view in Stockholm!

    Brilliant museum with a spectacular range of photo-art collection. The premises are very modern and well-kept. Takes several hours to observe it properly

    Great museums! Usually there are 3 to 4 exhibitions on different floors. Check the exhibitions before you go! The museum cafe on the top floor has a nice view on the harbor, it worths a visit as well!

    Exhibitors: Ellen von Unwerth, Zanele Muholi and Christian Tagliavani. Loved all of them! Beware if you’re sensitive of nudity, I overheard some tourists in shock. Also, the cafe has an amazing view!

    An amazing museum devoted to photography. One of the rare museums you can enjoy without a tour. At the end of your visit, go to the cafe at top floor, sit by the window, and eat a chocolate ball.

    Not all temporary exhibitions could interest but this is at least a must do for the permanent photos showing the history of the city through years. Cool bar & restaurant at the top with beautiful vue

    I loved the exhibitions here down to the detail of exhibition design and moving through the space. An awesome bookstore too. This is my favorite photography museum thus far. A Stockholm must.

    A culture experience from art to food. And the redefined upstairs with a lounge, cafe, and restaurant still boast some of the best scenic views of the city. Note that the weekends are often crowded.

    Not to be missed. An a la carte lunch overlooking Stockholm between 12 and 2.. otherwise a deli style lunch is still yum. Grab a spot by the window

    En your day in Stockholm with a visit to the photography museum. Open till late, you can visit all other venues before heading down to see the fabulous exhibitions and have a well deserved drink.

    Wine recommendations per glass to accompany the dish were really good ... We got a great spot at the window overlooking the Stockholm bay. Ask for a table with a nice view if you get the chance

    Amazing exhibitions, from wide range of photographers, so something for everyone. Cafe at the top level is lovely, very Scandinavian style, and great views of the city if its too cold to stand outside

    Even if you are not into photography, the view from and the atmosphere of the café alone is worth the entry fee! And with the Stockholm card even that is for free. ))

    You can visit Fotografiska as a gallery. It has a really artistic architecture and decoration. Also you can drink coffee at the top floor. I discovered that Bryan Adams also a good photographer:)

    The setups for the exhibition are always perfect. I guess the interest depends a lot on your own sensibility but the museum is worth a visit. Plus it's open until 22, which is rare in Stockholm.

    Absolutely worth the visit. It’s not huge, either, so you can totally do it in an hour and not have to set aside an entire day.

    Beautiful museum on photography. There were four exhibitions when we went, and Nick Brandt's Inherit the Dust was our favorite. Really liked the videos playing about the artists and their work, too.

    My absolute favorite attraction in Stockholm. Despite getting less boutique and more streamlined for hoards over the years. Don't forget to have fika in the cafe!

    Step 1: go to the rear of the 3rd floor, by the bathrooms. They have a free charging station for your phone!

    Loved the variety,as much as five different exhibitions when I was visiting. Also,check out the museum shop for an original souvenir: posters of the current exhibitions can be bought for about 120 sek

    Unlike other museums usually closing at unreasonably early hours Fotografiska is opened until late evenings. Multiple exhibitions at the same time cater different tastes. Top floor bistro is a must.
