It all started with the small island located right outside our property, Ørsvågholmen. On the island was a small farm, a fishing port ans “Rorbuer”. The location was chosen as it was very easy for the fishermen to moor their boats.
In 1895 all buildings were destroyed in a big fire, and all the new buildings were placed on the mainland. They built a big home for the landowner, a 5-story building where there was a grocery store, a telegraph and small rooms for people working in the fishing port. And they built a lot of small “rorbuer”. All these buildings are still here, and you can stay in them!
In 1913 the landowner went bankrupt, as the Cod did not come to this side of Lofoten for many years. Since the fishermen used rowing boats, they always chose the fishing port that was closest to them and the Cod, and Ørsvågvær lost it’s business.
In 1920 a new owner bought the land and put up a Cod liver oil boilery. This was built on a large wooden deck out in the water. Production from the boilery was good, but over the years the oil spilt on to the wooden deck and it started to rotten, eventually the entire building broke down.
