Things to do in Flekkefjord

  1. Flekkefjord Museum

    Before setting out to explore the town, collect the pamphlet A Tour of Flekkefjord from the tourist office. The richest source of old architecture is the Hollenderbyen (Dutch Town) district, with its narrow streets and old timber buildings. Flekkefjord Museum is housed in a home from 1724, but with 19th-century interiors.

  2. Flekkefjord Church

    One feature that stands out is the unusual octagonal log-built Flekkefjord church, which was consecrated in 1833. Designed by architect H Linstow (he of the Royal Palace in Oslo), the octagonal theme continues throughout, with the columns, steeple and baptismal font all conforming to the eight-sided form.

  3. Fiskebrygga

    Possibly the nicest place in Flekkefjord for a light meal, this café-style restaurant next to the tourist office does fish and chips (Nkr99), marinated spare ribs (Nkr129), delicious cakes (Nkr39) and ice cream. It has a certain urban sense of style, which is lovely in quiet little Flekkefjord.

  4. Pizza Inn

    This pleasant harbour-side restaurant has breezy outdoor tables to pass a summer’s afternoon or cosy booths for a winter’s evening. The service is good, as is the food. The ­entrecôte with salad (Nkr129) is a good deal.
