Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees ABBA will be the subjects of their very own permanent museum exhibition when it opens next year in Stockholm.

"Swedish pop music is an important part of our cultural heritage," said former ABBA member Bjorn Ulvaeus, who is also co-directing the exhibit. "And ABBA is one of our most well-known brands."
