On the museum railway Lennakatten, you have the opportunity to experience a journey with steam locomotives, historic diesel locomotives, and rail buses through Uppland.
Operates only during the summer season, according to the 2024 timetable (the train can be chartered by groups outside the season).
Just outside Uppsala lies the idyllic Länna Bruk. In a building dating back to the 1760s, workers came and went for 200 years. The old blast furnace and sawmill have now become a winery, distillery, and brewery. The company has its own vineyard in Leptokaryá on the slopes of Mount Olympus in Greece and produces not only wine but also gin, rum, and beer. During a tour, the owners will share insights about the operation and production, and offer tastings for interested groups.
In 1760, a new ironworks opened in the small town of Länna. Iron production was successful, but there were challenges in obtaining raw materials for the ironworks. Therefore, it was decided to build a new railway between Uppsala and Länna. In 1876, the Upsala-Lenna Railway opened for traffic.
The veteran train Lennakatten, a familiar sight in Uppsala, takes us through the beautiful countryside and arrives at Länna Bruk an hour later. We’ll enjoy a communal lunch before embarking on a tour of the old sawmill. Our bus will then transport us back home.
