The Iron Age farm at Ullandhaug is an exciting and educational place to visit. The farm is a reconstruction from the Migration Period (approx. 350 \u2013 550 AD). Glassfiber Products has supplied 135 meters of gratings for the farm.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A path made of fiberglass<\/strong>
Between the buildings, you will find fiberglass gratings sunk into the ground. It forms a clear and solid walkway that visitors can follow from A to B, without having to walk around the terrain. The walkway is practical to use, and it helps to preserve the surrounding environment. The fiberglass can withstand moisture without corroding, which distinguishes fiberglass from other traditional materials. Vegetation has the ability to grow and surround the gratings so that they blend into the surroundings without being intrusive. The path also has some wider sections, these are designed so that those with strollers, wheelchairs, walkers or similar have room to pass each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Approved for grazing<\/strong>
Both sheep and lambs roam the area to graze. The gratings have been approved by the county council as proof that they will not cause problems for the animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The animals enjoy the grazing area around the Iron Age Farm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cavities in the grates are filled with vegetation, which provides a camouflage effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Open-air museum<\/strong>
The longhouses are built on the remains of a farm that is about 1500 years old. The reconstruction gives an insight into what a typical farm looked like at that time. You can learn a lot about the history and the people, how they lived, ate, dressed and their relationship with animals and nature. If you want a historical taste, you can read more at Jernalderg\u00e5rdens websites.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The grilles were installed in place in 2018 by Kruse Smith Contractor AS.<\/a> Below you can see pictures from 2018 until now. You can clearly see how the surrounding vegetation embraces the grates. What will the grates look like in four more years? Or ten years?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
