Angelstad is a locality ( tätort ) in Sweden.

The place

The original development extended around the church and along the former railway line from Ljungby to Halmstad . Many of the houses were built at the end of the 18th century. Because of this still preserved development, Angelstad has retained its flair. It is therefore also a popular tourist destination. Today there are six rental houses, 19 semi-detached or terraced houses and various single-family houses in the village. The parishes of Hölminge, Bolmstad and Näglinge belong to the parish (församlingen). There are also many leisure houses here.

Angelstad has 276 inhabitants and the parish has 970 people. Of the 970 people, around 460 work, most of whom commute to Ljungby to work. There are around 80 jobs in and around Angelstad.
