Hei,

There are more than one survivor in Sweden:

The RSwAF museum in Linköping has a complete Albatross - I have been over to
photograph it inside and outside.

Another Albatross trainer is held by a museum in Gothenburg.
Since Gothenburg is just a couple of hours away by train or car away from
where I live did I contact the museum, they informed me that the aircraft
had been moved into deep storage.  
There is a possibility that it will be restored and put on display in a
museum that is being built up in an underground hangar just outside
Gothenburg, http://www.aeroseum.se/english/

Arlandasamlingen at Stockholm airport does also have the front fuselage of
an Albatross, it was used as a wind machine by a film studio.
