Backåkra

It was maintained by the Swedish Tourist Association, as a museum displaying his belongings and art, furniture, gifts and more - many from his time at the UN.

Today, the house is owned by Dag Hammarskjölds Backåkra Foundation and contains a museum, conference, small café and book shop.

Its local school, the folkskola, is today a summer hostel run by the Swedish Hiking Association.

The lands of the village are situated less than a mile from the shores of the Baltic in the Österlen area of Scania.

In April 2018, the United Nations Security Council held a unique meeting at Backåkra.
