Malmöhus & Museums: Four Museums inside a Castle

    Malmöhus Castle Moat
    by bpacker
    After saying my prayers at St Petri, Liz and I toggled off to Lilla Torg to have lunch. A cinch since that little square was full of restaurants. Fortified, we set off by foot to Malmöhus Castle, Sweden's oldest surviving renaissance castle and a monument from Malmö's Danish period. Hard to believe but this castle houses 4 museums on the inside! Yup, you can find the City Museum, the Natural History Museum, the Aquarium and Tropicarium, and the Konstmuseet inside. On the outside was the quintessential castle moat. The clear waters caught the odd-looking castle reflection splendidly. Yes, it is odd! From the outside, you'll see two massive drum towers looking for all the world like farm storage silos and strung between them a single slim building.

    As I mentioned, the Malmöhus Castle houses the Konstmuseet which contains a collection of old artworks by Scandinavian masters . Do keep a lookout of the the collection of Russian oil paintings from around 1900 , as it is the largest collection outside of Russia. My favourite was the depiction of the biblical Adam and Eve. Forever nude, strategically clad in leaves and lusting after a Red delicious. Sheesh.

    Other than the dials, we also checked out the crummy sleeping conditions of the submariners. Boy was it claustrophobic. Glad I am a woman and that I don't have to go inside one of these things . I don't think I can last more than a day crammed like a sardine in a submarine.

    After Liz and I exhausted all four museums in the Castle, we went across the street to check out Kommendanthuset ( Military Museum) and Teknik-Och Sjöfartsmuseet (Museum of Technology). Not that we were military buffs or anything. We just wanted to milk our malmo card for all its worth. The most impressive exhibit I remembered was the moby-dick sized submarine U-3.

    Other than the The Museum of Technology. the military musuem also houses the Vagnmusset or the Carriage Museum. It displayed carriages from the 18th century, coaches, and even ancient motorcycles! Ha, my biker hubby would cry if he knew what he was missing.

    Note: Received news that it closed down already.

    Our curiousity got the better of us so we squeezed our fat selves into the claustrophobic confines of the submarine. Fascinating. We saw dials, pipes and all kinds of gadgets inside.

    Mosaic Art in Malmöhus Castle

    Somewhere in the depths of Malmöhus Castle lies a little chapel with an extraordinary mosaic ceiling. As i laid on my back to take this picture, I thought of the poor sod who must have cemented one tile at a time to complete the gigantic jig-saw artwork.

    Now somewhere in the depths of Malmöhus Castle lies a little chapel. The only extraordinary thing about this place was the depiction of Christ et al ( angels, clouds, etc ) in full mosaic glory ! The artwork just took our breath away. Since the place was empty, Liz just sat on the floor to admire the handiwork. As for me, I did something crazier.

    I suppose the Malmöhus Castle is the only royal establishment in the world that houses an Aquarium and terrarium with fish, snakes and other nocturnal creatures. Though it is tiny, the place is worth taking a look as you really need a break after looking at all the old tapestries right?

    Ha, this is what Hubby would have loved to see. An ancient harley davison . I'm willing to bet if this baby can run, it would make a helluvaof a noise. The Vagnmusset (Carriage Museum) had many more of these vehicles from the 18th century . Not bad considering that it used to be a former military horse stable .
