Inner Valley of Sacrifice

From the early 18th century until the last world war, this small fjord community was Indre Ofredal , a busy town based on water as a driving force for the mill and sawmill. The forest in Ofredal was, and is, of good quality. In Ytre Ofredal there was a quarry - and white granite from this quarry can be found today at the Grand Hotel in Oslo. The products from the sawmill in Indre Ofredal was transported to Bergen by its own parish ship and returned with merchant goods that were resold to parishioners who came by rowboat to trade and grind grain. The old mill, which is made of wood, can still be seen today. Here you can rent both a sea cabin and a farmhouse for overnight stays or festive gatherings.
