Fascinating museum highlighting Swedish immigrants journey to America, plenty of heirlooms and historic pieces. I had Swedish relatives that lived in Waukegan in the early 20th century so loved this.
With a permanent exhibit about Swedish immigration to Chicago, rotating gallery shows, and a super-cute gift shop , this Andersonville cultural institution is a must-see!
Check out the gift shop for plenty of Uff-da mugs, and the Dala horse gummies are amazing...unfortunately no Malort, you will have to go to Simon’s Tavern for that.
Hope you enjoyed touring the museum ! Come by afterwards for some filling Mediterranean grub. Bee sure to check out our Foursquare specials!
Excellent children's immigration museum . They charge by the family, making this a very affordable afternoon. Afterwards, wander up and down Clark Street in Andersonville for food and window shopping.
The staff here were so friendly and informative, they made my visit so memorable. And of course I couldn't resist the gift shop .
At the Brunk Children’s Museum of Immigration on the third floor, kids can play in a Swedish farmhouse , board a steamship or viking ship , and learn about American immigration stories.
With an excellent children's museum and gift shop , this museum eloquently preserves Swedish-American heritage in Chicago.
