Hullo, we paid a visit with the missus to the Swedish army museum at  Stockholm the other day. They have a wargaming exhibition until early January, and the normal exhibitions are well worth a visit. As most museums, it is free to visit (well, the trip there might cost a quid or two).
Things of note: A few Original uniform coats sent by Louis XIV, a real S-tank parked in the courtyard, a lot of family friendly wax dummies showing soldiers and camp followers and what nots, and an overall "war is a bit of a bummer, really" tone. Oh, and they have a few muskets and rifles you can handle. And they have a german goliath demo vehicle on display too.
