Knarestad Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

cervisvenator: Hi

While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for the cache owner and block other cachers from placing a cache in the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can’t do so forever.

Nothing seems to happen with this cache listing, so it is now archived, so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location. Also, if it hasn’t been done already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

If the owner wants it reopened, send me an e-mail and I’ll be happy to unarchive the cache listing if it still satisfies the requirement/guidelines.

(This reviewer note is in English so non-Norwegian cache owners, geocachers and cache reviewers can understand what it says.)

Thanks for your understanding,

Geocache Description:

Knarestad er en gammel husmannsplass under Boen i Tveit og er den eneste helt intakte husmannsplassen igjen i Vest-Agder. Plassen ligger like nedenfor de første "strykene" man møter på vei opp Topdalsfjorden. Derfor var plassen en naturlige endestasjonen både for vikingenes handelsskip - knarrene og dampbåten Topdal som gikk i rute til Kristiansand frem til 1930-årene.
I 1949 fikk Tveit kommune Knarestad i gave og er i dag et bygdemuseum
(Kilde Knarestad info tavle)

Knarestad is an old cotter's farm. The place is located just below the first rapids in the Topdalsfjord. It was therefore a natural end terminal for the vikings merchant ships called Knarrene. The steamer Topdal was in regular service between Knarestad and Kristiansand until around 1930.
Knarestad was in 1949 donated to Tveit municipal and is today used as a museum.
