From Wikipedia on Fotografiska:
Fotografiska is housed at Stadsgården, in a former industrial Art Nouveau style building dating from 1906. Designed by Ferdinand Boberg, the building was used as a customs house, and is listed as a building of cultural interest. The original brick facade of building is intact, while the interiors have been renovated to house the museum. The city of Stockholm has funded the 250 million Swedish crowns restoration costs. In addition to the exhibition spaces, of 5 500 square meters, Fotografiska houses an academy, bistro, cafe, bar, conference rooms, museum shop, gallery, and event spaces.
