I really liked this place. The museum isn't that big but it's mostly about the history of Jews in Sweden. You can spend an hour or two there among the exhibits and descriptions.

Small and charming museum in the old synagogue's building. We stumbled upon it on accident and decided to visit & didn't regret it. I wish there was more to see though :)

Small and cozy museum that some days are free of charge, see the Web page. If you as I studied a lot about WWII it might be a bit repetarive but on the good side it has a lot of info about the Swedish involvement and attitude over centurys. Good for both non Swedish speakers and has audio. A place to respect. Giftshop is very small but cute. Prices are not very cheap but not expensive either.

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
