Frommer's Review
Founded in 1805, this is the second largest museum of archaeology in Sweden. Collections trace the development of the people of Skåne from the Stone, Bronze, and Iron to the Middle Ages. One of the exhibits displayed here is that of the skeleton of a young man dating from around 7000 B.C. -- one of the oldest human skeletons found in northern Europe. Another displays jewelry and weapons unearthed from a large grave field during excavations in eastern Skåne. The medieval exhibition is predictably dominated by church art removed from Skånian churches.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
