Welcome in and experience more than 175 years of Swedish industrial history! Among the many remarkable exhibits at the Munktell Museum in Eskilstuna are the very first Swedish tractor – from 1913 – and the country’s first wheel loader, dating back to 1954. You can also see the very first series-produced articulated hauler in the world, with the quaint Swedish name of "Grus Kalle" (The Gravel Charlie). The collection includes products representing many epochs of the companys lifespan. The museum renovates the objects so that they all are in functional condition. In the museum it is possible to operate a number of engines. Some of these engines were developed around the end of the 1880`s. Diesel engine manufacturing started in early 1900`s.
