On the Laxholmen river island in the Motala ström is a museum all about working life in Sweden, both now and in the Industrial Age.
The venue is Strykjärnet, a striking former textile mill dating to 1917 and with an unusual outline to adapt to the limited space on the island.
The museum puts on exhibitions that run for several years, generally mapping out the history and future of industry, from social and environment perspectives.
