Rörstrand Museum in Lidköping – the porcelain city

Rörstrand has influenced the Swedish design scene since it was founded almost three centuries ago and many of the Rörstrand items have become icons for Swedish design. The fact that Rörstrand porcelain is used at the Nobel banquet year after year says a lot about its high standard. The Rörstrand Center is an excellent place to learn more about the brand and the Swedish ‘white gold’. The extensive collections showcase centuries of porcelain design but also tools, sketches and circular kilns. Let yourself be inspired by both the beautiful everyday items and the unique showpieces on display. Want to give it a try yourself? Head to the creative workshop (Skaparverkstaden) where you can try turning and sculpting clay. You will also find design outlets and smaller shops selling ceramics at the centre, and when you need a break – hit the café and order a fika – served on Rörstrand porcelain of course.
