Professorshemmet (The Professor's Home)

Professorshemmet - Walmstedska-pressbild

Step into history and visit a bourgeois home from the late 19th century, where time seems to have stood still!

Upstairs in this residential building lies the former home of Professor Herman Rydin. You can visit a reconstruction of the home that the Rydin family rented in Walmstedtska Gården from 1860. The home has six rooms and a kitchen and shows a bourgeois home from the latter part of the 19th century. During the Christmas season, the tables are set and the living rooms are decorated just as they were in the 19th century.

Take a guided tour to find out more about what life was like in Uppsala during the 19th century, and to learn about the fate of the Rydin family.
