Guided tour of Kjerringøy trading post

Choose between three tours on Kjerringøy trading post .

Anna Elisabeth of Kjerringøy
You will be taken back to the 19th century, to the time of the clipfish and the crane. The tour takes place in the main house, where Mrs. Anna Elisabeth lived her life. All objects in the house belonged to Anna Elisabeth and her family. You will get an insight into the differences between the servants and the family themselves, and how hard life could be in a northern Norwegian trading post .

Kjerringøy trading post — an innovative and forward-thinking company
This tour also takes place in the main building, but with a different focus. Here, the financial acumen of the operators of the trading place — Christian Sverdrup, Jens Nicolai Ellingsen, Anna Elisabeth Ellingsen Zahl and Erasmus BK Zahl — takes center stage. You'll hear how they thought innovatively and long-term, and how they ran the place like the business it was.
