"Crime evening"

Each summer since 2001 there has been arranged a "Middel ages week" in Rollag, and Numedal valley, where you can take part in various and exciting adventures along the entire valley. This week there is a multitude of events at different privat middel ages farms, tours and concerts in rich decorated stave churches and middel ages buildings.

Last night there was a "crime evening", where we were told old local criminal stories and legends. The picture shows the two storytellers. :o)

You can see more pictures from last night here.

Detail of a stabbur

This is part of a door - it's a keyhole and a doorknob. The door is placed on a stabbur. Not the ones I posted in May though, but a similar stabbur.

Stabbur

A "stabbur" is a house on a farm. It is built in wood, and raised from the ground by pillars to avoid the access of rodents.

Today has been a very warm and sunny day - the summer has arrived Rollag!! :o)
