Johan Hadorph

Johan Hadorph

Johan Hadorph (1630-1693) was a Swedish antiquarian. In 1667, he was appointed assessor at the government agency for antiquities, and in 1679, he became its director-general. Hadorph documented ancient monuments during extensive voyages in Sweden, and he collected a great many older manuscripts, such as collections of laws.

Johan Hadorph's collections constituted the basis of Swedish Museum of National Antiquities.
