About

Tjæreovne (The Tar Ovens)

Of the 20 ovens that were built at the beginning of the 1900s, the two tar ovens in Hesselvig Plantage are the only to be restored. They have been brought back to their original state to show the production of charcoal and wood tar and, at the same time, they present a part of the period's culture history.
