Clothing

We recommend dressing according to the weather. Grimeton Radio Station was not built with visitors in mind, so you are noticeably exposed to sun, rain, or wind when moving between visitor buildings. For our additional activities, durable clothing is also recommended.

Motorhome pitches

The World Heritage site Grimeton provides 10 parking spaces for motorhomes. These are subject to a fee for overnight stays.

Photography and filming

Photography and filming are allowed for private use only. Drones are prohibited.

If you are a journalist, read more under press/media. If you are interested in using the site for commercial purposes, contact us via info@grimeton.org.

 

Animals

Animals are not allowed on the premises, with the exception of guide and assistance dogs.

Radio transmission activities

Grimeton Radio Station is still an active center for radio communication. Therefore, please pay attention to and respect the signage and boundaries in the visitor area, as there is equipment, antennas, and cables in use outside of this area. During operation, these generate electromagnetic fields, but as long as the restrictions are followed, the exposure visitors may risk during their visit is considered very low. People with medical implants and pregnant women should avoid being present during the start-up of the Alexanderson transmitter.
