The Rademachersmedjorna is one of Sweden's best-preserved 17th-century environments and here are Eskilstuna's oldest preserved buildings. The area is unique in many ways. Partly because it is a preserved environment from the working class, and partly because the houses have been allowed to remain in the same place where they were once built. For 360 years, the forges have been used for various types of crafts. The first forges were completed in 1659 and formed part of Carl Gustaf's Stad's ironworks, built and named after King Karl X Gustav. The factory in Eskilstuna was Sweden's first blacksmith factory. The business was state-owned and had exclusive rights to the manufacture of a wide range of forged products. Scissors, awls, knives, locks, veining irons, gun barrels, fittings and much more were manufactured here. In every blacksmith household, in addition to the master blacksmith and his family, there were also journeymen and apprentices. Two households lived in each forge. This meant that it could get quite crowded in the homes. Working in the forge was dirty and sometimes hot, sometimes very cold. Of the blacksmith families who came to Eskilstuna together with Rademacher, about half were immigrants, mainly from Germany. Since the manufactory was state owned, the blacksmiths did not own their tools or the products they made. All goods were handed in to the superintendent. It was determined how much each blacksmith would make each week to receive his wages. However, many sold their goods on the side, secretly. At the beginning of the 18th century, the manufactory passed into private ownership. In 1771, the area became part of Eskilstuna Fristad, where blacksmiths were allowed to run businesses without guild compulsion and customs fees. The name alludes to the idea of a sanctuary for blacksmiths and arose as a reaction to the lack of business freedom that prevailed in Sweden and to the fact that the manufactories were unprofitable. During the latter part of the 19th century, the remaining forges were used as premises for some of Eskilstuna's many rapidly growing industries. The small, individual companies were merged into larger workshops. Of the original 20 forges, six remain today. In addition to the forges from the 17th century, there are some houses in the area that were built or moved to the site later. In 1906, Eskilstuna's first museum opened in one of the forges. In 1959, as part of the city's 300th anniversary, the remaining forges were turned into a cultural reserve where history and tradition are kept alive. Traditional crafts are still performed here today by self-employed people and associations.

Large pizzas with plenty of filling

Great place to take a moment to watch the boats passing on the water while looking at the buildings at sunset. If hungry, this town also had plenty of spots to grab a bite, refill bisons, or enjoy a much-needed coffee.

You can see it from road 230. But the distance is a few hundred meters. Therefore, better to see it from the dirt road that passes over it.

Very beautiful farm. The main building is a red-painted wooden building with two floors under a hipped roof. The house was probably built in 1606, perhaps even earlier, and has, among other things, a well-preserved Renaissance stove bearing the year 1606. It then formed the southern wing of a main building that disappeared at the end of the 17th century. At the exit from the estate, which is bordered by an avenue, there are two red wings with gable roofs. They are of a later date and were used as workers' housing. To the east and west of these there are further older residential buildings and outbuildings added during different periods. Behind the main building are two loft sheds that were moved here from Järshammar and Västra Fyrby in Öja parish. The smithy and the carpenter's cottage were built in 1858 and bricked in slag. Wikipedia tells us: Biby was previously a manor and a manor in Gillberga parish, Västerrekarne district and Eskilstuna municipality. The farm is located twelve kilometers southwest of Eskilstuna. The main building in Biby dates from the 17th century and is one of the oldest preserved wooden residential buildings in Södermanland. Biby has been known since the 15th century, and belonged from the end of the 16th century until 1676 to the Stiernsköld family, and then to the Sparre family. In 1782, Biby was purchased by Baron Gustaf Celsing, and in 1788 became fideicommiss within his family. Since the last fideicommissary, equestrian master Fredrik von Celsing, died in 2008, the liquidation began. His heirs wanted to finance the inheritance by selling parts of the property. In 2013, Johan Klingspor at Stora Sundby bought the farm with associated land of around 1,200 hectares. In 2018, the Fideicommissnämden gave permission for probate. The fideikommisset is thus discontinued. There is a unique collection of Turkish paintings and documents from the time of the Celsing family that Turkish diplomats, the so-called Turkish collection, would sell on the international market after the fideicommission was dissolved. The government has, following referrals from, among others, the National Museum, the National Antiquities Office and the National Archives, decided partly that the state would not redeem the Turkish collection, and partly that the state would redeem the mission archive that was included in the fideicommissis. The Turkish collection is now in Qatar.
