Kragerø

I thought I'd take some time to talk about a nice place called Kragerø. We have a small house there, close to the water on an island called Langøy. Now, the interesting thing about this place is that it used to be a place Bærums Jernverk (Bærums ironworks) got their iron ore. There are lots and lots of mineshafts on the island, and old metal tractors are everywhere.

It's not entirely known when they started mining there, but it was sometime on the 1600'th century! Now, if I'm really lucky, I might find some really old coins there..

I'm going there in a few weeks, so it will be really interesting to search the island. Of course I will keep the blog updated.



I can't imagine how awesome it would be to find 400 year old coins :D
