Museum-the open air Museum Gamla linköping", whose name translates from Swedish as "Old linköping, is a Museum under the open sky, which is located in Ostergotland.

The idea to create such a Museum in linköping was the result of rapid development of the city in the 1940s, due to the success of Saab. This meant that many old houses in the city centre were demolished to make way for modern buildings. Politician Lennart Seeburg was concerned about the mass demolitions of buildings, and it was he who put forward the idea of creating Skansen in Ostergotland with the aim of preserving the architectural heritage of the region. The outdoor Museum is located on land formerly owned a farm in Walla Walla. The first building, which was moved to the territory of the Museum is the farm Huitfeltska. The majority of the buildings were moved later in the 50-ies and 60-ies. The houses are located according to the street plan, copied from the old town centre.

The Museum is open all year round and also a variety of old municipal buildings, here you also find private home, craft tents and museums, such as the railway Museum, opened in 1991, and the outdoor theater. City blocks Museum Gamla linköping" show was arranged as the life of a small Swedish town a hundred years ago: wooden houses, cobbled streets, gardens, playgrounds. Farm visits will introduce you to the rural history of the region. Moreover, at the Museum for the convenience of visitors there are shops where you can buy traditional Souvenirs, several restaurants and cafes and accommodation options for the night for those who want to stay and enjoy the beauty and charm of the environment.
