Volvo Museum

The museum is located so far away from the city centre and it’s pretty small. All the Volvo cars are very shiny but it’s not worth 160kr as entry ticket. There’s no any interaction with visitors whatsoever. It doesn’t feel like a high tech car company with so long history and so much investment in technology. It’s no wonder why there will be a new museum opening next year. Can only hope for that new one for now.

A great collection of historic Volvo cars, trucks and everything they have ever produced. The museum is modern and does a nice job showing the progression of their history. I highly recommend a visit!

This was a nice place for a couple of hours... it was nice to go down memory lane and see the history of Volvo, and all their products displayed. There's a cute cafe at the location. Overall a nice morning spent learning about an iconic brand.

I love this place! I never knew Volvo made such remarkable cars in the early days, probably underrated and unknown, but some of them had such plush interiors and tonnes of room that I think made passengers feel like royalty. You will also see how Volvo transformed over the years, to the glorious powerhouse it is today that is on track to compete with the world's best.

Beautiful museum, but really hard to get to. In the weekends the public transportation does not run according to schedule.. you need to call to some telephone one hour before you will need it.. Sad that google maps has no info about it and the bus sign only has it in small leterrs in swedish :( So we froze (with two small children) and waited for the bus, which never came :( In the end we took a taxi. I really reccomend the Volvo museum, this was our main destination and we enjoyed it! :)

I love Volvo! I planned a trip just to see this museum and had planned on doing a factory tour (be aware they close over summer for holidays and you won't be able to go). None the less the museum is wonderful and full of the history of Volvo, just amazing. Do yourself a favour and get down to this amazing museum!

It is a multi-level museum of evolution of Volvo. It gives a detailed description of it history and how it has been involved in various businesses of cars, trucks and even fighter engines. There is a souvenir shop behind the ticket desk where one can buy model cars, trucks, caps, t-shirt and other items. It also has a play area for kids to play around after a tiring day at the museum. Access to the museum is very restricted on weekend as there are no public buses to the museum. There is bus replacement service from vastraffik but it needs to be booked 1 hour in advance both to & from museum.

Found by sheer luck when our cruise ship docked right next to it in Gothenburg,Sweden. Have to say, it's one if the best car museums I have ever visited. An amazing collection if vehicles, many that I had never seen before. Info boards are in Swedish and English so it's possible to read up on every single vehicle. Fair to say my wife is not the biggest car fan but she thoroughly enjoyed all of the history and culture on show. My personal favourite is the Volvo Amazon but there also have numerous concept vehicles which are one offs that never made it into production. IMHO. a couple of them should have. Not sure about local parking as we were 75 metres from our ship. There is a cafe on site, toilets and a decent gift shop.
