RFN museum

The RFN museum is a working life museum in Vidsel that documents the industrial history of the region. Its collection includes aircraft models, tools, machinery, and other objects that illustrate the heritage of local industries.

The museum was founded in 1999 to preserve the industrial heritage of Älvsbyn Municipality. It was established to record the history of local work and production for future generations.

The museum preserves memories from people who worked in the region, showing how their working lives shaped the community. These collected stories and objects reflect the daily rhythm and relationships that developed in industrial towns.

Visitors should contact the museum before their visit to arrange admission and learn about current opening hours and any guided tours available. Planning ahead ensures you have a smooth experience.

The collection includes several unmanned aircraft such as the GAF Jindivik and Raytheon MQM-107A Streaker. This focus on experimental aviation equipment sets it apart from most industrial heritage museums.
