Opened in 1916, Liljevalchs is an all-purpose gallery space that puts on at least four major exhibitions a year of contemporary Swedish and international art, including the popular Spring Salon. The gallery was closed for upgrades and renovations during our last visit; until it reopens, check online for the locations of temporary exhibits.
