Karskoga; The Labolatory of Alfred Nobel
June 2002
On the way back from Selma Lagerlöf 's house in Mårbacka,
I stopped by at Karsokoga where the laboratory of Alfred Nobel
remains. Alfred Nobel did not live and work here for long period,
however the atmosphere of the location was quite impressive for me
telling the something of that industry-oriented scientist. In one
side, there was a large manor house, and on the other side, there
were laboratory buildings adjacent to the factory. Aside the manor
house, the old warehouse were changed into a industry museum
displaying the history of the area and the weapons they
made.
