Today, we took a little trip to Norns bruk, a bit north of us.
Norns bruk is like a little village, where they used to manufacture iron with start in the 1600s. At the end of the 1800s, 290 people lived there, and while the ironworks business dried up around the same time, forestry replaced ironworks as the main business, up until the 1960s.
It’s a nice place to visit and everything is situated in a fairly small areas, so you don’t have to walk that far.
Then we visited Karlfeltsgården in Avesta, the childhood home of one of Sweden’s best known poets, Erik Axel Karlfelt, who was awarded the Nobel prize in literature 1931.
