Steffågarden is a former "Strandsitter" home. Strandsitter is Norwegian for a beach dweller. In the coastal districts of the Norway, the strandsitter was a beach dweller who rented a small piece of land, but owned the house he built on it. His livelihood was usually connected to the sea. Steffågarden was built in 1793. Today it is a museum where you can get a good impression on how the people were living back then.
