Allow your explorer instincts to guide you to Avaldsnes where princes and kings have had their seat of power through millennia. Harald Hårfagre, who promised his betrothed Princess Gyda, that he would not cut his hair until Norway was united as one kingdom, established his court at Avaldsnes around 870 AD. Avaldsnes thus became the oldest royal seat in Norway. At the same location, St. Olav s Church today towers proudly over Karmsundet Sound. This sound was formerly known as Nordvegen the way north from which the name Norway is derived. Still curious? Follow the pathway from the History Centre to the Viking Estate on the island of Bukkøy, site of a living experimental research project. Among the attractions here, you will see a remarkable long house and an impressive large boathouse built in authentic Viking style. The boathouse is the only one of its kind in Europe. During the Viking Festival, which is arranged annually at the beginning of June, you can participate in Bukkøy s pulsating Viking Life. It is not only Avaldsnes that has traces of the Vikings. The whole region, ranging from Utsira in the west to Sauda in the east, features objects such as ancient stone monuments, burial mounds, rock carvings, and house and boathouse foundations. All are easy to find with the help of the overview on our website and through our printed annual guide. All attractions are accessibly situated within an hour of Haugesund. Harald Hårfagre and other kings bid you welcome to Nordvegen History Centre, where they will lead you though the recounting of royal sagas, ancient myths and archaeological discoveries, all of which will provide you with an intimate knowledge of the home of the Viking kings Norway s birthplace.
