Located at Saltnes, about 1 km east of Rognan, this village is a collection of original

rural buildings, moved to the site of the old Skippergården Farm. The main building is

from about 1750. The original owners were sailors and traders, as well as farmers. They

sailed their ships to Bergen loaded with fish and furs, and returned loaded with corn and

consumer goods for the people of Saltdal.
