Zinkgruvan

Zinkgruvan is a locality situated in Askersund Municipality, Örebro County, Sweden.

Zinkgruvan is home to a museum that documents the history of the mining industry in the town.

While historically the area has been heavily left-wing due to the mining works, this has gradually been eroded in the 21st century, with the electoral ward going to the right-leaning parties for the first time in 2018.

Tourist attractions include the natural surroundings of the town and the elk that live nearby.

Selling accessories and souvenirs to tourists is a major source of income for residents of Zinkgruvan.
