The Lofoten museum<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lofoten Museum is situated in an idyllic spot by the water\u2019s edge, on the site of the medieval town of V\u00e1gar.<\/strong> Photo by kjell ove storvik<\/mark>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

The impressive manor house was completed in 1815, when Caspar Lorch was the owner of the fishing village.<\/p>\n\n\n

Here he traded and exported fish, as well as renting out cabins to many of those who came to join the Lofoten fisheries in the harsh winter season. Discover the contrast between life in the manor house and the authentic \u00abrorbu\u00bb-cabins and see an impressive collection of traditional wooden boats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
