Christmas Fogelbo Tours

This is a special holiday-season opportunity to experience Fogelbo at its most festive. For a limited time each year, the historic home is filled with Christmas decorations that can only be seen during these seasonal tours. It is a truly magical sight.

Explore Fogelbo with docents and Ross Fogelquist, who has lived in the house since childhood, and hear stories about the home, its history, and its remarkable collection of Nordic antiques and folk art. With its Christmas decorations in place, this is a rare chance to see a different side of this National Historic Place built by famed craftsman Henry Steiner.

More About Fogelbo and Ross Fogelquist

In Swedish, fogelbo means “bird nest” and is derived from the Fogelquist family name, which means “bird on a branch.”

Fogelbo houses one of the largest private collections of Nordic antiques and folk arts in the United States. Ross Fogelquist, who grew up and lives there, has been a passionate collector throughout his adult life. He is a member of the Order of the Polar Star and was knighted by the King of Sweden. Thousands of people have been hosted and charmed by this unique estate over the last sixty-four years. Fogelbo and two acres were deeded to Nordic Northwest in 2014 by Sir Ross Fogelquist.
