The KTAS shop...

The phone exhibition is manned Tuesday and Thursday. In here phones from 1885 are on display; many of them function on an exchange switchboard from Mid Zealand, many are rare and unknown, for instance an exchange pick phone, which was the work phone of Telephone Director Johannes Rosbæk (1964-1981). Furthermore, the exhibition contains several small and large switchboards, various extra bells, relays, flashing signals, drop annunciators, parts relays, as well as a call in system for firemen from Kalundborg Fire Brigade. There are measuring instruments of various kinds, as well as tools from the little, delicate tweezers to the large, heavy tools for cable and overhead wirework. A cable closet from 1907 is also part of the exhibition – this has been renovated by The Co-operative Village’s blacksmith guild. There is also room for a small library – the visitor is allowed to read the books and handle the phones.
