Welcome to an exhibition that invites you to explore the secretive world of alchemy – from rare 16th-century books to its unexpected presence in our own time.
Step into the fascinating world of alchemy at Skokloster Castle, where mystery, science and human curiosity come together. Drawing on rare books and illustrations from the castle’s collections, the exhibition explores the ideas, symbols and experiments that captivated alchemists for centuries. Through imaginative imagery and intriguing stories, visitors are invited into a world where transformation – of metals, knowledge and the human spirit – was at the heart of discovery. Set within one of Sweden’s most remarkable historic castles, the exhibition offers a thought-provoking and inspiring experience throughout the summer.
