Wall Fixings For Magnets

I would like to 'hang' some fridge magnets on a wall and need some sort of magnetic fixing to attach them to - a sort of screw with a magnet on the head, perhaps, or a magnet that sticks to a wall for a magnet to connect to.
I know I can buy magnetic boards to attach several magnets to but that is not what I want.

Does anyone know of such things and the proper name for them if they exist?

Faced with this, I'd attach those small strong neodymium magnets to the wall using strong clear double-sided nano tape - can be removed without leaving any marks. Both from amazon. Here's the tape...

Aha! Obvious and easy solution, thanks, ginge. Sometimes I can't see the wood for the trees
just use a steel screw then the magnet will stick to the head.
^ true but that's a lot of screws to put in a wall...and lots of holes left if you remove/move them...
here's another idea, next time you decorate, buy a sheet of thin steel and attach to the wall then wallpaper over it, then you'll have a space to stick as many as you want. Ginger's idea is good for moment.
Neodymium again as per Ginge's post, but self-adhesive.
An alternative to double sided tape.

make sure you dont get the wrong polarity :)

Thanks all, great ideas
Why don't you just use Command double-sided hanging strips, no need for a magnetic fixing at all?
