Ranked in Guide Michelin
Sweden’s Museum of Fashion, Design and Decorative Arts. See temporary exhibitions on design, colour and function. The museum also exhibits Chinese handicrafts, 18th century furniture and tableware, The Röhsska Museum history of design and Japanese design.
The majority of the collection consists of old Swedish and European handicraft products, but also includes classical Greek and Roman artefacts. Material from Japan and China is also well represented.

The Museum's collections are not set up on a cultural history basis, i.e. to reflect their times. Instead, one of the main criteria for selection of objects has been high aesthetic and technical quality.

These days, the Röhsska Museum mainly collects contemporaneous material in the categories of handicraft, commercial handicraft and industrial design.
Mainly Swedish products, but Nordic products together with European and First World products which have been important for design are included in the collections.

Many temporary exhibitions are arranged here every year..

Other:

The museum has regular guided tours, both for the general public and special interest groups such as schools. There is also a design shop and a café.
