Järnvägens Museum Ängelholm

Järnvägens Museum Ängelholm, Railway museum in Ängelholm, Sweden.

Järnvägens Museum Ängelholm occupies a refurbished locomotive shed dating to 1898 and presents over 2,000 square meters of exhibition space. Visitors find railway signals, handcars, and steam locomotives on display throughout the building.

The locomotive depot was built in 1898–1900, thirteen years after Ängelholm's current station opened, with 16 stalls and a 15-metre turntable, at a cost of 41,162 kronor. A second shed with 6 stalls and a 20-metre turntable followed in 1917. The SJ school, today Trafikverksskolan, moved in in 1955. The museum opened in 1998 as Banmuseet, inaugurated by communications minister Ines Uusmann and Banverket director-general Bo Bylund; it became Sveriges Järnvägsmuseum Ängelholm in 2006 and took its present name in spring 2012, when Ängelholm municipality took over from Trafikverket.

The exhibitions showcase objects belonging to railway workers and tell the stories of their daily lives and contribution to building Sweden's rail network. Visitors learn through personal accounts how these workers helped connect the country.

The museum sits just south of Ängelholm station and Trafikverksskolan, directly beside Kronoskogen, in the converted 1898 locomotive shed. The exhibition hall covers about 2,000 square metres, with the large model railway, the LOCOMOTION simulator and the steam locomotives spread across the former engine bays. Allow time to walk the whole hall rather than only the entrance area.

The museum houses LOCOMOTION, an advanced train simulator where visitors can operate both historical and modern rail vehicles. This hands-on experience lets you understand what it feels like to control a locomotive.
