The
School
Baron Rutger Macklean was a pioneer in many ways. Par example he inaugurated
compulsory school attendance for children from the peasant families who
lived at his domains, many years before this type of school became law
in Sweden.
The
School in the museum was moved here in 1942, 100 years after compulsory
school attendance was introduced in Sweden.
This
is all history today, but many people still living in Sweden have had
their first education in a classroom like this.
Notice
the showcase in the corridor outside this room, here are more objects
from older Swedish schools shown.
