Huseby Statarmuseum shows two homes from different decades in the same building. Upstairs, the 1930s flat is an old agricultural worker’s dwelling in the former sawmaster’s residence. It depicts the home of the Pettersson family, seven people sharing two rooms and a small kitchen. An exhibition describes conditions for agricultural workers elsewhere in Sweden at the time, and the museum says guides are on site to explain their lives.
Downstairs, a 1950s flat has two rooms and a kitchen, arranged for a young family with a mother, father and small child. The museum says this part opened in spring 1998. The wider history concerns the statar system, in which agricultural workers were employed on a permanent basis and received part of their pay in goods such as potatoes and rye. The system developed in the late 18th century and ended in 1945.
The museum opened on 4 May 1986, following a donation from Hillevi Svensson, who grew up in Grimslöv.
