Rikkenstorp is one of the older farms run by Finnish settlers, and was probably established at the beginning of the 17th century. You can also look round a smokehouse here. ’Pörte’ was another name for this kind of building. This was the living-quarters for the Finnish settlers. Different foot paths through the old Finnish district in the southern part of Grangärde Finnmark.
