Forsand

Description

Fossanmoen, Forsand in Ryfylke is the site of extensive remains from the Landa village, a remarkable and unique chapter in Norwegian history. Our ancestors lived here continuously for 2000 years, from about 1500 BC to AD 600. Reconstruction aims to recreate something of the atmosphere that prevailed 3000 years ago. The first building, a Bronze Age house, was displayed in 1995.

The Landa villlage is also a point of interest in the Ryfylke Multiguide - a free app for your smartphone.
