Volvo Museum

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.

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.

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.

Our visit to the Volvo Museum in Gothenburg was a veritable journey through the history of one of the world’s leading automotive brands. The museum’s exhibition impressed with its scale and attention to detail: from the company’s earliest cars to the latest innovative models and even racing vehicles. The experience was not only informative but also incredibly engaging. Each exhibit was accompanied by detailed descriptions, which provided an insight into how the company’s engineering thoughts and design approaches evolved over the decades. The interactive elements of the museum were particularly noteworthy, making the visit entertaining for both myself and my son. He especially enjoyed learning about how different parts of the car function and the chance to sit behind the wheel of one of the exhibit models. The museum’s atmosphere fostered a deep immersion in automotive culture. The staff was very friendly and ready to answer any question, making our visit even more enjoyable. The souvenir shop offered a variety of interesting items that served as a great reminder of our trip to the museum. The Volvo Museum in Gothenburg left an indelible impression, and I would recommend it to anyone interested in the history of automobile manufacturing, design, or simply looking for an engaging place to visit in Gothenburg. It was time well spent in both education and enjoyment, and my son and I will definitely return again.

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!

Although the Volvo brand has not belonged to the Swedes for many years, you can still feel a breath of history and the spirit of the founders here. You don't have to be a fan of the brand or a fan of motorization to visit this place. And it guarantees that the time spent will be well used. We will learn, among other things, how the idea of ​​​​creating a car brand came about and how huge was its contribution to the innovation of the automotive industry in later years. On site you will also find a very well-equipped souvenir shop and cafes. Being in the vicinity of Göteborg, I definitely recommend to find a longer moment and look here.

Thank you. Arriving at 09h55 for the 11h00 opening we left at 16h20 after the 16h00 closing. Another two hours - another full day - would have been not enough. There is so much to see and so much to learn. Everything is clearly laid out and beautifully explained. Of particular interest were the historical context details of current affairs as we proceeded from the mid 1920s to the present day. We have had the most wonderful day. P.S. The very best car I have ever owned was a 1967 Volvo 121 Estate with its utterly dependable B18 engine. Registration: GPV 836E It had soul.

Nice museum. Would visit it again. Not only the cars, but also the trucks are exhibited. Regretfully not the latest cars are in the museum. They stopped at the beginning of the 2000s. But a vast amount of the older models can be experienced.
