Through the years, the Swedish Cottage served many purposes – a tool house, a library, an
entomological laboratory, even a headquarters for the Civil Defense during World War II.
Today it is home of the Marionette Theater, well-beloved by old and (mostly) the youngest. It
received its standing troupe of puppeteers in 1947. Since then, they have put performances of the
most beloved children plays like Peter Pan, Cinderella, and many others!
