Guided tours

Book a guided tour and experience the historical events at Huseby Bruk!

Huseby Bruk is one of Småland’s most significant cultural heritage sites and one of the best-preserved ironworks environments in Sweden. During the 19th century, Huseby was considered one of the largest estates in Småland, with a history spanning several centuries. The ironworks was once a centre for iron production, forestry and agriculture, developing into a vibrant community where work, culture and social life shaped everyday life.

A central part of Huseby’s history is the Stephens family, who during the 19th century left a lasting mark on both the manor and the ironworks. Their lives and legacy are still present today, reflected in the buildings, surroundings and stories that continue to be shared.

Today, Huseby Bruk is a place to gather and explore the untouched interiors of the manor, the industrial heritage of the ironworks and the vital role of the forest in the site’s development. With its historic buildings, parks and exhibitions, Huseby Bruk offers a journey through time that combines knowledge and experience for visitors of all ages.

FAQ

Welcome to Huseby Bruk! Here, we have gathered practical information for your visit.

The Animals at Huseby

Down in the kitchen garden you will find the Stephens’s dog house, where in the past, pugs and other small furry dogs of different breeds used to run around. Nowadays it’s the peacock and hens that strut around in the nice little yellow octagonal house. The gang now living in the old dog’s house include:

The Castle

In the Castle, where the Stephens girls played a hundred years ago and where Ironmaster Stephens received King Oscar II, time has stood still. Here, one can still hear the rustling of the women’s skirts, the chambermaids’ brisk steps across floors, and the dogs padding over the beautiful carpets. The smell of cigars and pipes still lingers in the men’s writing room.

Park & Garden

The landmarked park in front of Huseby’s beautiful manor is built in a German style, which was the highest fashion two hundred years ago. Each year, agaves, plants which have a long history at the estate, are planted in the symmetrical flower beds.

Museums & Buildings

Come and discover the joy that the gardens bring, the joy of food and handicraft – the joy of life at Huseby Bruk! In recent years, the ironworks has been transformed from being a disused ironworks into a modern trading and handicraft place for visitors from all over the world.
