The order value is approximately SEK 190 million. Construction will begin in January 2025 and is scheduled for completion in early 2027.

The now heritage-listed former distillery buildings, which were used to produce aquavit until 2015, will be renovated and converted into an art center. NCC’s scope includes site remediation, partial demolition, and construction of an extension, totaling 3,200 square meters.

“Here we will preserve the industrial heritage in the buildings and carefully renovate and convert them for a new function. We are proud to be able to breathe new life into our existing building stock,” says Jakob Søe Lundgaard, Regional Manager at NCC Building Nordics.

The project aims to transform the historic distillery into a new cultural destination while respecting its industrial origins. Careful renovation and adaptive reuse will give the old buildings renewed purpose as an art center.
