Långe Erik (“Tall Erik”) is a Swedish lighthouse built in 1845 and located on a little island, Stora grundet, at the north cape of Öland, the second largest island in Sweden. The island is connected to Öland by a small bridge built in 1965.

The older, larger lens is still installed, but no longer in use. The lens was used until the 1990s before an aerobeacon was installed on the lantern’s balcony. The light is remote-controlled by the Swedish Maritime Administration.

The tower is open for climbing during the summer season for a small fee.

The Vastveit Storehouse is one of the oldest buildings at Skansen. It was erected in the 14th century but rebuilt at the end of the 18th century. At that time it was raised up on posts and the entrance was built in with carved decorations.

(I did notice the Norwegian style when we were there, but I didn’t reflect more on it.)

The Vastveit Storehouse comes from the farm of Vastveit in Telemark in Norway and is the only building at Skansen that is not of Swedish origin. When Hazelius acquired the building Sweden was still unified with Norway. The union with Norway ended only in 1905.
