Skeppsholmen
About
To the east of Stockholm's Gamla Stan lies Skeppsholmen. It is one of the islands of Stockholm and is connected with Blasieholmen and Kastellholmen by bridges. It is accessible by foot from Kungsträdgården, by bus number 65, or by boat from Slussen, Djurgården or Nybroplan.
The sleek shooner moored off the island is the 100-year old af Chapman, now a youth hostel and a café.
Also on the island is the spectacular new building of the Museum of Modern Art (Moderna Museet) designed by the Spanish architect Rafael Moneo, with a collection of 20th century art that is considered the finest in the world, and includes works by Dali, Picasso and Margritte among others.
