How to Plan a Visit to ISKCON Korsnäs Gård (New Radhakunda) near Stockholm

ISKCON Korsnäs Gård — also called New Radhakunda — is a Hare Krishna temple in the countryside south of Stockholm, near Tumba. It is open daily, and the Open House programme is described as open to everyone with everything free. To plan a visit, use the daily schedule below to pick a time, then check the site's "Plan Your Visit" and altar opening timings pages before you travel, since those are the pages the temple itself points to for current details.

Where the temple is

The temple is at Korsnäs Gård in the south of Stockholm, in Stockholms län, close to Tumba. The site describes it as the only Radha-Krishna temple in Scandinavia and the home of Sri Sri Gandharvika-Giridhari, as well as the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust.

The temple at Korsnäs Gård was established in 1976 under A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the founder-acarya of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness.

Daily programme

The published daily schedule is:

The morning block (4.30–8.15 am) is the fullest sequence; if you only want one visit, the 8.15 am meditation and Q&A session is the part explicitly framed as a session for visitors to take part in. The 7 pm Gaura-arati is the evening option.

What "Open House" means here

The site states that the Open House is for everyone, everyone is invited, and everything is free. That is the temple's own description of the programme — treat it as the basis for planning, and confirm anything time-sensitive through the temple's own contact channels.

Before you go

• Check the altar opening timings page. The daily programme and the hours when the altar is open for darshan are listed separately, so a programme time does not automatically mean the altar is open.
• Check Plan Your Visit for practical directions and any current notices.
• Check the Festival Calendar if you want to visit during a festival rather than a regular day — festival days usually follow a different schedule from the daily programme above.

The Deities you will see

The presiding deities at New Radhakunda are Sri Sri Gandharvika-Giridhari, representing Radha and Krishna. The temple also houses Sri Caitanya and Sri Nityananda, Giri-Govardhana, Lord Nrsimha, and twelve shalagram-shilas.

If you want to bring something back

The temple shop in Sweden stocks Srila Prabhupada's books, including the premium edition of Bhagavad-gita As It Is (1,008 pages, hardcover with dust jacket, 64 reproductions of original paintings) and companion hardcover editions of Teachings of Lord Caitanya and The Nectar of Devotion, plus an illustrated Sri Isopanisad. The site notes these arrived in Sweden, Germany and the UK in September 2026, that quantities are limited, and that ordering information is available by contacting the temple.
