Discover and learn about the history and artistry of Swedish-American immigrants. You can see these artifacts in person when touring the museum, but you can begin the journey in the comfort of your own home using our artifacts database.
Gammelgården Museum’s collection is on MNCollections, which is tied to the collections management system we use (CollectiveAccess). Artifacts are being added weekly (and, some weeks we are adding artifacts daily) to CollectiveAccess/MNCollections. So, check back often to see more artifacts in our collection.
