The Angerstein family is a German- Swedish family from Angerstein, Niedersachsen, Holy Roman Empire, [1] with indications of ultimate origins from Hungary. [2]
The Swedish branch immigrated through Anders Angerstein (1614-1659), along with accompanying smiths. In time, Anders Angerstein settled by the Angerstein forge in Vikmanshyttan, Dalarna. His issue extended the holdings, including Vira bruk, Thurbo, and Bispberg, inter alia, [3] with craft production authorisation by the Swedish Board of Mines, [4] remaining in the family until the 19th century. Donations were extended to cultural heritage protected interiors of the Hedemora church in the Diocese of Västerås. [5]
In 1981, the former Angerstein steelworks were transformed into the Steelworks Museum of Vikmanshyttan, maintained as a museum of regional industrial history. [6]
