About
Disagården Open Air Museum sits in Uppsala, Sweden, at Disagatan 12. It is a historic farm and open-air museum, also known as Disagården Museum Village, that preserves the traditional rural life of Uppland, the province around Uppsala.
What you will see
The site is made up of buildings from the 18th and 19th centuries, gathered to show how people lived and worked on a farm in this region. Walking between them gives a sense of the everyday rhythm of rural Swedish life in earlier times.
A visit to the farm
The museum demonstrates traditional crafts and farming practices, so a visit is as much about watching how things were done as it is about looking at old buildings. It suits visitors who are interested in:
- Rural history and the way farms were organised
- Traditional crafts and the skills behind them
- Old farm buildings and how they were used
- Learning about Uppland's countryside outside the city
