Summer Final
This year we are running a Summer Final for everyone who didn’t have time to visit us during our six weeks of Summer Open. Even though we have had over 6,000 visitors. Thank you to everyone who made our summer fantastic.
Are you the visitor number X,000? We are not revealing what number it will be yet, but if it is you, there will be surprises!!
Thousands of happy and satisfied visitors from near and far decided to come to Ljungby and experience Minivärlden. Never before have we received so much praise and appreciation for all the great exhibitions and miniature worlds.
As usual, we have loaded up with lots of experts for those of you who want to know a little more.
The whole family is welcome as usual. Our fantastic summer exhibition is intact. See everything here.

- Extra for the children – Balloons for all children.
- We also have all the exhibitions left – LEGO Fantasy, Camilla’s dollhouse, the Battle of Narva, Trollskogen, Willy’s model cars and Nils-Inge’s nice gas stations. Anders Holmberg’s nice exhibition Meccano 1925 – 2025. And the children can compete with the Hare & the Turtle as usual!!!
At least five Lego masters will be on hand to talk Lego to you
If you missed our Lego Fantasy exhibition last summer, you shouldn’t miss it again. A very inspiring exhibition with fantastic creations. Several of the builders have participated in Lego Masters or are part of Swebrick and Adults Fun of Lego. Beautiful buildings and exciting solutions. We are so incredibly grateful that everyone is exhibiting with us.
We reveal the winner of this year’s Lego Fantasy competition. At 2:30 PM
This year’s theme has been “Film”. The builders have been able to choose which film they want and what they want to portray. Eight entries are competing for this year’s prizes. And it is our visitors’ choices that decide.
The experts tell us
We have loaded up with technicians, creators, historians and builders on site if you want to talk model building, landscapes, trains, 3D products, control systems. Or just experience the Mini World with everything that entails.
We show how to build landscapes.
Carina Arvidsson is on site 10.30 + 12.00 + 13.30. Look and ask. She loves it.
Building model houses – the process, 3D drawing and printing
Lennart Pålsson is on site at 10.30 + 12.00 + 13.30. Look and ask. He loves it.
The secrets behind technology and train systems
Train and special effects technicians are on site all day. Look and ask. They love it.
Gas stations and nostalgia
Nils-Inge Gustavsson is on site and tells the story behind his work and the details of his Ljungby models.
Lilla Småland – a history book in 3D model
You will be very fascinated by this miniature world. Everything is handmade in the improbably detailed Småland landscape. It shines wildly and beautifully in colors from July, August and September. Everything is made with care and attention to detail with all that entails of cultural landscapes, lakes, bogs, hills, moors, forests. And not least all the hand-built houses just as they looked around the 1940s / 50s.
The unique self-made trains run between the small station Bökö out in the countryside, via the community Lidhult, once the center of the extensive lingonberry trade in Småland, away past the rushing river and on towards Åsens and Unnen stations. Then Byholma, Piksborg and finally Bolmen station.
Things happen here all the time – trucks drive, there come two cyclists, the steamboat Vega bounces in the waters of Lake Unnen. Day turns to night and suddenly the smoke from the fire is visible in some of the houses. Here and there you press a small button to perhaps see the hens eating or a blacksmith working at the smithy. And if you look closely, there are many small episodes, events and stories in the detailed landscape.
This is Småland’s “largest” construction project which is now growing gradually and will eventually be about 450 square meters in size. You can also follow the construction in different phases.
The bargain corner is open as usual
In our shop you will find a lot of older train equipment – locomotives, wagons, houses, etc. Things that we have been given as gifts and that we sell at reasonable prices to our visitors. We also sell some model material at great prices.
Millans Kafé is loaded
The brain needs rest and the body needs energy. Millans Café is your watering hole during the visit.
This summer it was a success with Stinsen’s toasted luxury waffles and lovely, hearty pies for those who are a little hungrier. Of course, there is also the usual home-baked goods and a sale of the last ice creams of the summer.
Spend some fun and fascinating hours with the whole family with us.
Welcome!
