Open house at Mårtensson's Boatyard
From 1934 to 1985, the three Mårtensson brothers built more than 1,000 hunting canoes, Blekingsekor and motorised sledges adapted to the archipelago, all according to the rivet building technique, which has been classified as a cultural heritage technique since 2021.
During the summer of 2025, Mårtensson's boatyard is hosting open house events on Saturdays and Sundays, at 10 am - 4 pm.
A knowledgeable guide will be present to share information about the tradition of wooden boat building on Hästholmen Island. Mårtensson's boatyard was designated as a historic landmark in 1997 and is now managed by the Mårtensson's Boatyard Foundation.
Visitors will have the opportunity to take a rowing trip in a traditional hunting canoe during their visit.
