[Source: NME.com] An Abba museum is set to open in Stockholm.

Opening in June 2009, it will include an area where fans can make their own recordings of Abba hits.

The three-floor complex will also feature a wardrobe room dedicated to the Swedish band’s famous fashions.

The band are donating clothing, musical instruments and other memorabilia to the museum.

“The recording room” will be a recreation of the Polar Studios facility where they recorded much of their material, reports BBC News.

There will also be a “disco room” where visitors will be able to dance to Abba tracks.

Organisers hope to attract 500,000 visitors a year to the waterfront attraction, which is being built at a cost of 200 million Swedish krona (AUS$35m).

In a statement released last year when initial plans for the museum were revealed, the group said: “It is nice someone feels compelled to take on our musical history.”
