Högfors bruk, Iron works heritage site in Norberg Municipality, Sweden.
The Högfors bruk complex features two preserved blast furnace towers standing as central elements of this former industrial facility.
Founded in 1464, the iron works operated continuously until 1953, employing 250 workers during its peak production period.
The site forms part of Ekomuseum Bergslagen, preserving the industrial methods and social structures of Sweden's iron manufacturing history.
Visitors can reach the site via Road 256, with the nearest airports being Borlänge and Dala, both 69 kilometers from the location.
The manor house, constructed in 1680, remains privately owned while serving as a testament to the administrative operations of iron production.
