West Norway Emigration Center
Author: Rune Mellingen.
The West Norway Emigration Centre includes the emigrant church, Brampton Lutheran Church, brought over from North Dakota in the USA and an emigration archive for Hordaland and Sogn og Fjordane. 4 commemorative stones have been erected in connection with North American history and the Norwegian contribution during World War II. One stone shows the connection to the Western Isles of Viking times. A schoolhouse, a pioneer's house and schoolteacher's house from pioneer times have also been brought home and rebuilt. A town hall, prison and doctor's surgery opened in summer 2002.
How to get there: follow E39 north to Knarvik, then road 57/565 to Sletta.
