Havrå is one of Norway's best preserved cluster farms, a type of settlement once common in western Norway where several families built their houses close together and shared the surrounding land. People have farmed here since the Bronze Age.
The farm was protected as a national heritage site in 1998. It is still worked using traditional tools and methods, showing how local resources were used before mechanisation changed everything. The buildings, the layout of the fields, and the way the land meets the fjord below give a vivid picture of how life was lived on these small western Norwegian farms for centuries.
Havrå is only accessible through guided tours run by the Museumssenteret i Hordaland. Tickets must be booked in advance. Tours last about one hour.
