  2. Jakobsensbrygga Warehouse

    In Sjøgata, the Jakobsensbrygga Warehouse is an excellent small museum that portrays, via some particularly evocative photo blow-ups, the history of Mosjøen from the early 19th century onwards. There's an English guide-pamphlet for each section.

  3. Laksforsen Waterfall

    About 30km south of Mosjøen and a 600m detour from the E6, the roaring 17m-high Laksforsen waterfall has leaping salmon in season and makes a pleasant picnic spot, although it's a bit of a struggle to reach the shore below the torrent. The café, a churlish place with its 'no photo' and 'guests only beyond this point' notices, is one to avoid.

  4. Rural Building Collection

    Northeast of the centre, the Rural Building Collection features 12 farmhouses, shops and the like from the 18th and 19th centuries, which you can view from the exterior. It has a pamphlet in English.
