Malmö's outpost of Stockholm's Moderna Museet occupies a former power station turbine hall, which gives it dramatically high ceilings and generous space for large-scale installations. The permanent collection covers Swedish and international modern and contemporary art from the 20th century onward, with particular strength in video art and installation work.
The museum rotates its shows frequently and often hosts major international exhibitions that don't make it to Stockholm. Admission is free for the permanent collection, which alone makes it worth an hour of anyone's time. The building sits in the Rörsjöstaden neighbourhood, a short walk south of the central station.
