Kärnebygds Kvarn och Såg

On the shore of beautiful Lake Tjärnesjön, there is a well preserved mill environment from the 18th century. The location is well worth a stop with its exhibition in the buildings and for a walk through its picturesque surroundings.

A Location Rich in History

The Kärnebygd mill was established some time at the beginning of the 18th century, and this is where grain would be milled for a fee. The saw arrived some hundred years later. The mill was run by a large mill wheel, and you can go in to have a look at both the mill and the saw. In 1914, an electrical generator was installed, which was run by the saw turbines. Furthermore, it was at this time that the buildings took their current form. The operation was discontinued in the 1960s.

Pay a Visit

Here you will find tables and benches where you can sit and have a coffee break, as well as some beautiful nature through which you can take a walk. The buildings are open and there is more to read in an exhibit. Right next to this, you will find Viktors Affärshus with a farm store and accommodations.
