Indre Offerdal

Indre Offerdal or Ofredal is a small village on the shore of the Årdalsfjorden (a branch of the Sognefjord) in Årdal Municipality in Vestland county, Norway.

The village was the administrative center of the municipality of Årdal more than 100 years ago.

In those days, the main industry in Årdal was lumber, and Indre Offerdal had a strategic position near the forests and accessible by boat.

Timber and grains were brought here from all over the region for use at the gristmill and sawmill.

The museum is 17 kilometres (11 mi) by a mountain road from Årdalstangen through the Seimsdalen valley.
