Neighbourhood information

The Longhouse At Lista opened in 2017, and many guests have been able to enjoy the great view, the magical "Light at Lista" and look at the animals that live in the end of the house. The Longhouse at Østhassel beach, has, as the name implies, been inspired by the historic houses at Lista and Jæren (in Rogaland county) and other places in the region, dating 2000 years back in time. The oldest buildings date back to the Bronze Age and are normally 20-30 metres (65-100 feet) long and 8-9 metres (26-30 feet) wide. The Longhouse at Lista, is located in a unique bird sanctuary. Its location gives you a unique opportunity to live in a wonderful coastal area that has about 400 bird species come visit every year. There are many nice excursions and trips on Lista, and just a few meters from the Longhouse there are many old remains from the World War II. Just beyond is also the Marka shooting range and practice range, here there is a large collection of war memorabilia and several of the bunkers and trenches are open and can be viewed and experienced. At Norberg, you can visit the Nordic region's best-preserved coastal fort, Nordberg Fort, which was built by the German occupying power during World War II. From Nordberg Fort you can follow the road down approx. 400 metres, then you come to Penne. At Penne you will find a total of 22 petroglyphs from the Bronze Age. In the same area, there are also remains of a farm from the migration period (400-500 A.D.) Farsund is a city with many exciting stories, you can take a walk through the city and read about the history on the signs around the historic places and buildings.
