Gammelstan in Norrboda as a whole has no equivalent in Dalarna, according to Dalarna researcher Sigvard Montelius, who dubs it "a truly genuine Dalaby cluster".
Even more so now after the recent inauguration of the permanent exhibition Mountain Farm Carvings with sharp text messages from the herding hills and the listener-friendly Oremål corner. Both are public successes that lend further weight to the cultural treasure that Gammelstan itself is. Together with the beautiful costume exhibition in Orekammarn, inaugurated in 2022, they form a powerful visual and vocal triad: the costume, the goal and the carvings.
The traditional uniqueness of Gammelstan's Nissnissgården and Finngården consists in the fact that they are located in their original location around the fenced village street - unlike most other old farms. The lives of our ancestors have been lived there. Their breath and toil can be sensed in the air for those who stop. In this way, the visitor gets a vivid picture of what the farms in Ore parish looked like 400 years ago and how they developed. The oldest houses are from the 1600s, which is evident from the ownership records.
A legally protected building monument since 1966, where nine generations have lived a life of scarcity. Now with extra everything of this distinctive smallholder culture above Siljan allom and Ore Hembygdsförening to the joy and pride.
