Animals in the City

Why do animals settle among the city’s high-rise buildings and honking cars? Have you ever wondered why animals settle among the city’s high-rise buildings and honking cars? Find out in the new exhibition based on Sarah Sheppard’s children’s book, *Djuren i staden* (Animals in the City). The exhibition is open until 9 January 2028.

Welcome to the concrete jungle! Here, you can step into the book and meet chatty sparrows, foxes on night patrol, tram-riding pigeons, and the city’s wiliest resident—the rat! Discover a world where the proportions are all out of whack, with banana slides and gigantic fries. Through facts, imagination, and humor, you can explore how animals live in the city and learn why the city has become a haven for blackbirds, squirrels, foxes, and more unusual visitors.

Many people want to visit the sparrows, foxes, and rats in *Djuren i staden*, so we admit visitors in smaller groups to ensure everyone has a good experience. You therefore need to book a time slot before your visit.

Time slots for *Djuren i staden* are booked on the same day, directly at the museum. Book your time when you buy your ticket or show your annual pass at the museum. You will then receive a physical ticket to give to the host at the exhibition. Entry is at quarter past each hour, and a visit lasts about 45 minutes.
