Vagnsmuseet

During a visit to Tjolöholm's Carriage Museum, housed in a stable building along the road to the castle, you will learn more about equestrian life on the estate and see beautiful carriages from the turn of the 20th century. All the carriages belonged to the Dickson and Bonde family and were used by them at Tjolöholm or in Gothenburg. A rarity in the collection is the Hamson Cab, a model that was often used as a taxi cab in London but was very uncommon in Sweden. In the carriage museum, you will also find the castle's first vacuum cleaner, purchased in 1905 for 5,500 SEK. The vacuum cleaner weighed one ton, was horse-drawn, and equipped with forty-meter-long hoses that were pulled in through the castle's windows and doors. Admission to the Carriage Museum is free.
