Tyskmagasinen

Tyskmagasinen, Historic warehouse in Karlshäll, Luleå, Sweden.

Tyskmagasinen were two large red wooden warehouses beside the water in Karlshall. The buildings served for decades as storage space for goods and equipment before they were destroyed.

The warehouses were built in 1912 as part of Sweden's first wood pulp mill. During World War II they stored German supply goods intended for troops in Norway and Finland.

The name Tyskmagasinen, "the German warehouses", comes from the buildings being handed over to German forces during World War II. They held fodder grain, tinned goods, oats and barley bound for German troops in Norway and Finland. A memorial on the site commemorates prisoners of war.

The two warehouses stood at Karlshäll, just north of Karlsvik in Luleå, on a low concrete base at the water's edge. Since the fire of 25 June 2016 nothing of the buildings remains, so there is no interior to enter; what can be seen is the waterfront site itself. A memorial to the prisoners of war stands on the spot.

The warehouses were named for the German troops they supplied: during World War II they held fodder grain, tinned food, oats and barley bound for German forces in Norway and Finland. The Malmbanan friends' veteran locomotives and railcars stored there were lost with the buildings on 25 June 2016.
