'''Hälleforsnäs''' is a [[urban areas of Sweden|locality]] situated in [[Flen Municipality]], [[Södermanland County]], [[Sweden]] with 1,585approximately 2000 inhabitants in 20102020.<ref name=scb />
 
A littlesmall village in the municipality of Flen., Centrallyit situatedis {{convert|15| km|0|abbr=on}} (9 miles) from [[Flen]], {{convert|32| km|0|abbr=on}} (20 miles) from [[Eskilstuna]], and {{convert|40| km|0|abbr=on}} (25 miles) from [[Katrineholm]] and 120 km (75 mi) south-west of [[Stockholm]].
 
This village, {{convert|150|km|0|abbr=on}} from Stockholm has been awas hivean ofindustrial industrycenter until the beginning of the 1990s when the [[foundry]] that the villageit was built around wasceased closedoperations after 350 years (foundedin 1659)the early 1990s. NowadaysThe the Foundryfoundry is now a cultural centrecenter and once again a hivehub of activity.
 
Beginning in the 17th century, the foundry functioned as a cannon workshop. Here, cannons were manufactured for the Swedish army in Europe. The foundry switched from producing military products to civilian radiators and stoves at the beginning of the 20th century. Between 1920 and 1980, pipes and other plumbing supplies were the company's primary products.
 
In the 1960s, when the foundry was at its peak, more than a thousand people worked there, as well as a few hundred in related occupations nearby.
 
[[Electrolux]] acquired the foundry in the 1980s and began manufacturing cookware plates. In 1990, Electrolux ceased operations, and several employees acquired the foundry. The area surrounding the foundry is still active, but less so than when it served as the village's focal point.
 
Today, the actual foundry serves as a center for local artists, and Hälleforsnäs has become the cultural heart of [[Sörmland]]. Both a restaurant and a seasonal herbal store are present. Moreover, the Jürss dairy company manufactures and sells award-winning cheese on-site.
 
== [[Riksdag]] elections ==
Due to its industrialization, Hälleforsnäs has always been a stronghold for the [[Swedish Social Democratic Party]]. Since it has always been Flen Municipality's most left-leaning district, it has contributed to large majorities throughout the municipality. With fewer people living in Hälleforsnäs, fewer people voting, and more people migrating to cities in Swedish industrial areas at the end of the 20th century, the number of votes cast there has significantly decreased. The vote share of the Social Democrats in the village decreased by 29 percentage points between 1994 and 2018, while the vote share of the [[Sweden Democrats]] grew rapidly.

The foundry began as a cannon workshop, cannons were made and exported from here to the Swedish army in Europe. In the beginning of the 20th century the foundry started going over to civil production, making radiators and stoves. Between 1920 and 1980 the main products were pipes and other plumbing accessories.
During their high life in the sixties there were over 1000 employees at the foundry and a few hundred people employed with subsidirial work round and about the foundry.
In the eighties the foundry was purchased by Electrolux, and production switched to producing plates for cookers until they closed in 1990 and the foundry was taken over by some of the employees.The area around the foundry is today still lively, but not the way it was when the foundry was the centre of the village.
Today: The actually foundry is a centre for artists in the area and Hälleforsnäs has become a cultural centre for the whole of Sörmland. There is a outlet for lager 157, and during the summer months a gardening shop is open. There is also a Cheese making company (Jurss Dairy)
