The blacksmith at Sund is a clever smith and an amusing entertainer. Don’t miss this local hero, and get your self a one of a kind souvenir from Lofoten, one of his world known cormorants.

The Blacksmith at Sund. Watch the blacksmith at work and shop from a large selection of his hand crafted sea birds and sculptures. Located in a charming old fishing village with a fishing museum and a cafe on the water.

Info In Norwegian and English En morsom opplevelse av et historisk håndverk. Historien om en av Lofotens eldste turistattraksjoner har noe eventyraktig over seg. Driften ved museet og smia holdes i hevd slik det ble grunnlagt av Hans Gjertsen i 1947. Den offisielle åpningen av museet var i 1964, men grunnlaget ble lagt i 1963 ved åpningen av E10 (kong Olavs V vei). Som en av pionerne innen satsing på turisme i Lofoten gjennomførte smeden Hans Gjertsen sitt livs markedsstunt under åpningsseremonien. Bokstavelig talt banet han seg vei fram til kong Olav V igjennom folkemengden for å overrekke sitt kunstverk, skarven. Hans hadde spurt på forhånd om tillatelse men blitt avvist av arrangøren. Kongen derimot var veldig nysgjerrig på denne røsten som runget over folkemengden med ordene «Unnskyld du Konge! Får jeg overrekk deg en skarv?» Resten er historie. The story of one of Lofoten's oldest tourist attractions has something adventurous about it. The operation of the museum and smithy is maintained as it was founded by Hans Gjertsen in 1947. The official opening of the museum was in 1964, but the foundation was laid in 1963 at the opening of E10 (King Olavs V vei). As one of the pioneers in investing in tourism in Lofoten, the blacksmith Hans Gjertsen carried out the market stunt of his life during the opening ceremony. He literally made his way to King Olav V through the crowd to hand over his work of art, the cormorant. Hans had asked in advance for permission but was refused by the organizer. The king, on the other hand, was very curious about this voice that resounded over the crowd with the words "Excuse me, King! Can I hand you a cormorant? ” The rest is history.
