Mimers Hus, Cultural center in Kungälv Municipality, Sweden
Mimers Hus is a modern cultural center with a public library, theater, and exhibition spaces spread across three floors. The library holds a large collection of materials in many different languages, while the theater and galleries host regular events and exhibitions throughout the year.
The building opened in 2004 as a new cultural center and quickly became a major destination for education and culture in the municipality. Its establishment marked a turning point in the local development of public cultural institutions.
The art gallery presents multiple exhibitions throughout the year in a 120-square-meter space with seven-meter-high ceilings and a glass facade.
The facility is easy to access for visitors and offers free wireless connection and computer workstations for working. The library and theater are open daily to the public and it is simple to explore the different areas.
The center uses an automated robot named Tor-In that sorts books and handles returns in the library. This technology makes operations more efficient and is an unusual feature for a cultural facility of this kind.
