Målvägens

Målvägens is a Swedish toponym formed as the genitive of Målvägen, a common street name element in Sweden. The base components are mål, meaning goal, aim, or target, and vägen, meaning road or way. Because toponyms often reflect local history, landmarks, or planning choices, the exact origin of a given Målvägen can vary from place to place.

In practice, the form Målvägens appears in compound place names or in addresses to indicate possession or association with the street. For example, a facility or landmark described as “Målvägens skolor” or “Målvägens torg” denotes its location on or near the street named Målvägen. The genitive form is a common feature in Swedish toponymy to name features that belong to or are situated on a particular street.

Geographically, Målvägen as a street name appears in multiple Swedish municipalities, and Målvägens may be used in signage and documentation to refer to objects tied to those streets. Because there is no single nationwide monument or site called “Målvägens,” references are typically local and contextual, drawn from municipal address registers and geographic databases.

Notable uses of the exact possessive form are limited to local contexts. There are no widely recognized national landmarks specifically titled “Målvägens.” For more detailed or locale-specific information, consult the relevant municipality’s toponymy records or the Swedish Place Names Authority (Lantmäteriet).
