Welcome to Fårö local heritage association
Fårö local heritage association manages some historical buildings such as Nanten´s windmill together with the house were Nanten lived his life as miller. The pilot´s cabin and Jauvika fisherman´s cottage at Lauter harbour are other historical buildings that we preserve for coming generations.
We have a museum at Ekeviken were we show the boat "Skärsände" and tell stories of risky rescue operations in the stormy waters of Salvorev, a reef north of Fårö where a lot of ships have been wrecked over the years.

We are planning to create a museum of social history where we will show cultural items from old times. This museum is planned to be located together with the coming Bergmancenter in Fårö former school. See the tab "Fårö Museum".
