Storddøra "Gateway to Stord"

Furthest out on the breakwater jetty on the approach to Leirvik stands the sculpture "Storddøra" (gateway to Stord) by the artist Sissel Tolaas.

The sculpture was erected with the assistance of the local business community. The sculpture is a 16-metre-high structure in stainless steel with 20 builtin propellers which rotate in the wind and sparkle in the sun.

A park area (Onarheimsparken) has been created around the sculpture. It is a pleasant walk out to Storddøra from the centre of Leirvik. The walk takes about 5 mins.
