A REAL ESPIONAGE CASE – STOCKHOLM 1940
The Swedish Security Service has identified intelligence indicating that a sabotage operation is being planned in Stockholm.
An organized group is operating in secrecy.
The target is of strategic importance to national security.
If the operation is carried out, the consequences could be severe – and risk drawing Sweden into the war.
You are part of the Surveillance Bureau – Counter-Intelligence.
Your task is to uncover the threat before it is too late.
THE MISSION
You must map out the entire operation.
Determine:
- Who is leading the network
- Who is giving the orders
- What is being planned
- Where it will take place
- When it will happen
- Who will carry out the attack
Identifying a single individual is not enough.
You must understand the entire network in order to stop the operation.
HOW IT WORKS
You will be divided into smaller teams of 4–7 participants per team.
All teams work with the same material and the same mission.
You have 75 minutes to solve the case.
You compete against each other – and against the clock.
Before the mission begins, you must quickly assess each team member’s strengths and use them effectively.
Mobile phones are not allowed.
Everything you need is in front of you – and in your team.
No shortcuts.
Only your ability to think, collaborate and make decisions.

Swedish Spy Museum Projekt is a non-profit project around creating an intelligence history museum in Sweden, a “Swedish Spy Museum”. Our subsidiary is Swedish Spy Tours which specializes in city walks and other events.
Our insider 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, on the other hand, during the summer months, various “Spion” hikes.
Our spy tours take place in historically interesting areas of intelligence, currently only within Stockholm County, but other hikes 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 hikes and lectures are offered. For more information, please contact Johan by email: [johan@swedishspymuseum.se](mailto: johan@swedishspymuseum.se) or by phone: 073-730 94 99
