City walk / Spy walk - Casablanca of the North
Our very popular walking tour of the World War II spy "capital", Östermalm in Stockholm. Unique fates and stories that show a different picture than the generally known. In this walking tour we included 6 months of research in the Swedish and the English National Archives and can therefore tell you completely new information. Follow along to some of the addresses that housed spy organizations in World War II Stockholm, hear about Astrid Lindgren in counterintelligence, what Norwegian resistance fighters did in Sweden, about “Sepal bases”, why Sweden had 900 Americans “interned” and why Stockholm was called “The Casablanca of the North”. Also, get an explanation for WHY Sweden didn't participate in the fighting in the war, the reason is not the one you likely been taught in school. Hear also about Sweden's important role in one of the world's greatest exploits in encryption and why the Japanese Marine Attaché's uniform and samurai sword and his wife's kimono can be found at the Army Museum and much, much more. In addition, we will be able to show off an occasional unique medal as well as a camera with a very special story. This walk also has an independent continuation in our new walk Meet 12 female spies.

CITY WALK /SPY WALK- IN THE SHADOW OF THE COLD WAR
Take a walk through the old top secret military area in Ursvik, Sundbyberg and hear about what the various buildings and storerooms hid, what the “Russians” knew about the operation of the area and much more. Hear about Swedish nuclear weapons, radioactive pigs, the origin of the romance killer, and so much more about the area's unique, top-secret history. We will also tell you about methods, recruitment, Swedish nuclear bombs and nuclear submarines, about FOA's top secret research into nuclear weapons and biological and chemical weapons and about the “pig that escaped” that could have caused a disaster, about how Ursvik was at the center of the news without ever being mentioned on several occasions in the 80s and how close Karlskrona was close to being annihilated by a nuclear explosion, narrated by “someone who was there” as well as whether it was working as a “spy” during the Cold War and how Swedish spies worked abroad. If time does not run out, we also talk about how a Swedish operator works in the near future and what equipment Swedish “agents” use, it's probably not what you think. In addition, unique “spy gadgets” from history are exhibited. DISCOUNTS! Are you a group of between 5 and 10 people? Get a group discount of 20% for the entire group.

About Swedish Spy Museum

Swedish Spy Museum Project is a voluntary driven project to create a museum of intelligence history in Sweden, a "Swedish Spy Museum".

Our skilled guides take you through stories of spies, agents, and secret and covert activities in Sweden throughout history, where we put these in their historical context.

Until our project with a physical museum can be realized, we organize lectures and during the summer months, various “Spy” Walking tours.

Our spy tours are walks in areas of intelligence historical interest, currently only within Stockholm County, but other tours may come later.

The walks vary in length but usually last between 2½ to 3½ hours depending on the extent of the hike and the guest's involvement. For more specific information, click the book button under our respective events.

Of course, both customized walks and lectures are offered. For more information, please contact Johan by email: johan@swedishspymuseum.se or by phone: 073-730 94 99
