The apartment is part of the old Hallstahammar's railway station, which was built at the turn of the 19th century in 1900. Together with the railway, the building is part of a profound change in society around the turn of the century. The railway was a major reason for the development and emergence of industries and societies during the first half of the 20th century. The station was for a long period one of the Hallstahammar's gathering points and thus has an identity and a symbolic value. Similar railway station buildings can be found in other locations in Västmanland. The station building is largely well-preserved since the time of construction in terms of proportions, building materials and design, which gives a good insight of its creation time. The building tells about the time of construction, common building materials and architectural styles. The station building has, among other things, features of Art Nouveau, English cottage style and Swiss style, which is typical of station buildings that were built around turn of the century 1900.

Our family has lived in the house since 2020. During these few years we devoted ourselves to preserving the cultural and historical values of the house.
