Lilla Edet in three films: the lock, Göta älv and Artscape

Three distinct views of Lilla Edet: a lock-history explainer, a wider canal journey that passes the town and a film about the public-art project represented locally.

The 3:11 film from Trafikverket features Sjöfartsverket project lead Johan Eriksson explaining the proposed triangular lock for Lilla Edet. It adds engineering context to the town’s long relationship with canal navigation. Because it was published in 2024, treat it as an explanation of the proposal at that time; consult current project notices for the latest plans and access.

This 1:36 overview follows the wider Trollhätte canal rather than presenting a dedicated Lilla Edet itinerary. Its Swedish description gives the waterway’s length and explains that one of its six locks is at Lilla Edet. It is useful for understanding how the settlement fits into the route between Vänern and the west coast.
