The Museum of Work

Arbetets museum – The Museum of Work is an unusual museum.

It is a meeting place for all senses.  This old cotton mill, once described by Carl Milles as the most beautiful industrial building in Sweden and known locally as the iron (Strykjärnet) is simply full of life.

The museum depicts working life and working conditions through exhibitions, seminars and programme activities. The museum of Work is an innovative meeting place which promotes discussion on peoples work, lives and conditions.

Our Creative workshop is open every weekend, both Saturday and Sunday 12.00-16.00 and offers the opportunity for adults and children to create things together. We have various themes throughout the year.
