Vaxholm Fortress Museum

Stockholm · Sweden

The 16th-century Vaxholm Fortress sits on its own small island just off Vaxholm and is reached by a short boat shuttle from the harbor. Kids can explore the ramparts, cannons, and prison cells, and the museum inside tells the story of Stockholm's coastal defenses.
