Mullhyttans kyrka and the exercise facilities at Ă…savallen offer different highlights for a stay in Mullhyttan. The craft traditions of Mullhyttemarken add another dimension. When looking for a hotel, the first decision is whether architectural history and local traditions or exercise should play a bigger part in your stay.
Church and local history
Mullhyttans kyrka was inaugurated on 18 December 1927. The building, 22 metres long and 12 metres wide, is a timber structure with a rendered exterior. Its dimensions and construction offer a concrete impression of its architecture. Much voluntary work went into its construction: between 1924 and 1928, nearly 8,000 Swedish kronor were raised through voluntary contributions. Kvistbro kommun provided a grant of 4,000 kronor, and Kvistbro församling provided a grant of 5,000 kronor. The fundraising period includes the year of the inauguration, 1927, linking the building’s history with its financing.
Alongside the church’s architectural history, Kvarngården, a local heritage museum farm, represents another facet of local history in a lively historical setting. The two topics offer different perspectives: here, the dimensions, construction and inauguration date provide the framework; there, the identity of a local heritage museum farm shapes the picture. For travellers who want to include cultural history in their search for a place to stay, these are different points of interest within Mullhyttan.
Exercise at Ă…savallen
The exercise trail in Mullhyttan is two kilometres long. Next to it, Ă…savallen has an outdoor gym that is open to everyone year-round and free to use. Access information may change, so check it before your visit. The Skogsmulle obstacle course starts at Ă…savallen, and there is also a disc golf course there. This means there are different types of exercise to choose from: a trail with a stated length, an obstacle course, an outdoor gym and disc golf.
If you want to try disc golf, you can borrow discs or Frisbees for a refundable deposit at Ica Träffen in Mullhyttan. The address is Mullhytte Letstig 17. Fishing permits for Stora och Lilla Hemsjön are available from Mullhyttans cykel och sågservice AB. So, as well as the facilities at Åsavallen, there is practical information about disc golf and fishing, each linked to a named place or body of water.
Crafts and market traditions
A 2026 report dates the old frame saw at Sågbacken to 1877. Sågbacken in Mullhyttan is also home to the Museum of Women’s Textile Crafts, mentioned in connection with Mullhyttemarken’s Crafts Day. During the 2026 market weekend, the local heritage association’s small museum was open, displaying objects from the past century. These details bring together different aspects of local craftsmanship: the frame saw with its stated date, the textile museum mentioned in connection with Crafts Day, and the local heritage association’s collection.
According to a description from July 2026, Mullhyttemarken takes place every year. Saturday is dedicated to the large market, followed by Crafts Day on Sunday. If you want to plan your stay around the event, check the dates before travelling. The description gives an overview of the sequence of event days; you can then plan your travel dates accordingly.
