Roughly half of the botanical and mycological collections are digitalized and searchable in our Herbarium Catalogue.
The herbarium is open again
The botanical and mycological collections at the Swedish Museum of Natural History (S) have been closed for several years due to renovations, but are now open again for loans. For loan requests, donations and any other collections-related queries, please contact us using the herbarium@nrm.se address. We will gradually open for visits to the collections during the second half of 2025.
Visits
You are welcome to visit us, but you must contact us in advance via herbarium@nrm.se to agree on a time and be able to prepare your visit. We can offer access to libraries, microscopes and some laboratory facilities.
Loans
The Botanical Department lends specimens from most collections to other herbaria registered in the Index Herbariorum. Contact herbarium@nrm.se if you want to borrow specimens from the herbarium.
