Very old dolls, the first Saab and worn-out running shoes are just some of the things you can see when you visit us. Here you can discover things you previously had no idea of, for example what an elk sounds like. You can learn that and much more about the “King of the Forest” when visiting Älgens Berg Royal Hunting Museum. Vänersborg Museum, which incidentally is the oldest museum in the country, houses unique collections of items brought back by explorers from their journeys of discovery.
