LIGHTHOUSE AND VENDEL CABINS

You are now walking through our home harbour, past the lighthouse and the four vendel cabins. The lighthouse with the nice red lantern on the top, is like all our other huts along the coastal path, created from the drawing board of the architect and our father, Svein. They were inspired by the Rubjerg Knude lighthouse on North-Jylland. Rubjerg Knude is one of Denmark’s biggest tourist attractions located in old Vendsyssel, which was ruled by King Alv of Vendel. King Alv was the father of Alfsol, who you will hear referred to several times here at Furustrand. So, you can probably now understand where our vendel cabins get their name from?
