The purpose and vision of Swedish Spy Tours
Our events reveal Sweden's role during the Second World War and the Cold War. We give our guests new insights and, through thorough research, offer new perspectives and knowledge about Sweden's role in this pivotal era that shaped both Sweden and world history.
Join us on a fascinating journey through Swedish intelligence history that challenges old myths.
About Swedish Spy Tours
Swedish Spy Tours and the Swedish Spy Museum Project is a partly non-profit public-education project about conveying knowledge of Sweden’s remarkable history, and about creating a museum of intelligence history in Sweden — a ”Swedish Spy Museum”. Our subsidiary is Swedish Spy Tours, which specialises in city walks and other events.
Our well-informed guides take you through stories of spies, agents and covert activity in Sweden through history, placing them in their historical context.
Until our physical museum can be realised we arrange talks as well as various ”Spy” walks.
Our spy walks take place in areas of interest to intelligence history, at present only within Stockholm County, though other walks may come later.
The walks vary in length but are generally between 2½ and 3½ hours, depending on the location, the scope of the walk and the guests’ engagement.
Tailored walks and talks are of course also offered.
