Discover Totebo

Totebo offers several specific themes to consider when planning your trip. The railway station, with its railway history and functionalist design, the Xrundan, Totebo badplats (Nässjön) and the farm shop at Totebo Gård appeal to different interests. You can focus your stay more on cultural history or include a route, a swimming spot or local food options in your plans. Which of these aspects matters depends on your reason for travelling.

The Xrundan in Totebo

The Xrundan in Totebo is about 2.5 kilometres long and runs counter-clockwise. It starts on the opposite side of the road from the shop and follows an asphalt surface. Its length, direction and starting point give you practical guidance when you include the route in your plans. Check the route status before setting out; the surface may change. The distance provides a clear point of reference for considering the route as a distinct part of your stay, while the stated starting point helps with orientation.

Railway station, architecture and industrial history

Totebo’s railway station was built in connection with the construction of the railway between Västervik and Hultsfred in 1877–1879. The station building acquired its current functionalist design in 1943–1944. These two periods refer to different historical aspects: the station’s origins in connection with the construction of the line, and the building’s later design. This allows you to consider railway history and architecture as related but distinct in time. Functionalist architecture puts use at the centre and shapes design around a clear purpose.

Totebo AB’s factory also has considerable cultural-historical value. This adds a distinct connection to the factory alongside the railway history when choosing your areas of interest. The station focuses on its origins and design, while the factory offers a further link to industrial heritage.

Swimming spot and farm shop

Totebo badplats (Nässjön) is a swimming spot in Västervik Municipality. It offers a different point of interest from the building and railway history: here, the swimming spot itself is the feature to consider when planning your trip. If swimming is one of your interests, you can take this information into account when choosing Totebo.

The farm shop at Totebo Gård sells meat from its own organic beef production. The shop also offers lamb, pork and game meat sourced elsewhere. This clearly distinguishes these other types of meat from the beef produced on the farm. If you are planning to shop, check before travelling whether the products you want are available.
