Follow the history of one of Ibestad's oldest farms as you go back in time to the high middle ages tracing the history of early Danish Settlers following 'The Great Plague" and discovering the trials and tribulations of these early inhabitants. Through times of plenty and times of hardship follow how the inhabitants of this ancient Viking Farm have sought to live and prosper. Plagued by Russian Pirates, hard winters and often encountering failed crops see how these people overcame tragedy and suffering to succeed in a hostile climate. As the Industrial Revolution spread from England round the World see how in the face of new and exciting opportunities in the 19th century many inhabitants chose to find a better life for themselves in the New World and beyond as the Gold Rush and Pioneer Spirit gripped America.
