Gyllene Hjulet

MC‑Museet Gyllene Hjulet in Surahammar displays roughly 90–100 motorcycles and about 30–35 mopeds from Swedish and international makers, plus period police bikes and local artist murals. The collection is run by MCHK Mälardalen and housed in the former Gyllene Hjulet workers’ inn.

The museum follows seasonal opening patterns (weekend and summer weekday hours) and also hosts club rallies and veteran markets; call or check the official site before visiting for current hours and group bookings.

Small museum with a focused, well‑preserved collection and local character.

Look out for:

• Early Swedish VABIS/Vabis examples and other rare domestic models.

• Historic police motorcycles and long‑running marques (BMW, Honda, Swedish makes).

• Wall paintings and period fittings from the building’s 1949 heritage interior.

• Rotating displays and occasional club events or veteran markets.
