The Kingdom of Tygriket that built Sweden

Marks municipality is an important part of Swedish cultural history thanks to its strong connection to the textile industry.

The area, particularly towns like Kinna and Skene, became the centre of Sweden's textile production during the 19th and 20th centuries. Here, weaving mills, spinning mills, and the ready-made clothing industry developed, contributing to the country's industrialisation and economic growth.

Marks municipality is also known for its long tradition of craftsmanship and innovation in textiles, which continues to shape the area through design, education and businesses within the textile industry.
