Internetmuseum is a Swedish digital museum opened in 2014.[1] In June 2016 Internetmuseum was inducted to The Association of Swedish Museums (Riksförbundet Sveriges museer) as the first entirely digital museum.[2]

Internetmuseum is run by the independent organization The Internet Foundation in Sweden (Internetstiftelsen i Sverige) and features a mix of technology, politics, and internet culture. The ambition of the museum is to spread knowledge of the Swedish history of Internet and to preserve the digital heritage.[3][4]

The museum retains websites of certain historical interest such as all websites from Sweden's first commercial ISP Swipnet.[5]
