Rundradiomuseum Motala

Rundradiomuseum Motala occupies a 1927 broadcasting station building in Bondebacka and displays vintage radio equipment along with technical devices from Swedish radio history. The facility contains exhibits that document how transmission technology evolved over time.

The Swedish Telegraph Authority established this broadcasting station after 1926, following parliamentary funding approval to create a central transmission point for nationwide radio coverage. The station marked the start of a new era in Sweden's mass media delivery.

The name "Rundradio" refers to the nationwide broadcasting that originated from this location. The building itself shows how technicians and workers once came together to bring radio signals into Swedish homes.

Visitors can participate in guided tours that explain the technical equipment and broadcasting processes through various exhibits. Allow time for interactive demonstrations to fully understand how historical radio technology operated.

Two radio towers standing next to the museum, both about 120 meters tall and built by Motala Verkstad, remain visible today. One of these towers can be climbed, offering a view of the historic broadcasting facility from above.
