The Villie Shop

This is a small shop from the nearby village Villie. In earlier days, shops like this, selling everything from groceries to boots and agricultural implement, was common in the Swedish countryside. Today they are very rare.
In the 1980's, when this shop was closed down for ever, the last owner Wilma Persson donated the whole estate, with fixtures, furnishing and merchandise to the Svaneholm Castles museum.
