    In the beginning, Lafallhöjden farm was a Finnish dwelling place.

    He has a typical

    Location on top of a south facing

    located relatively steep slope with a wide view. At that time, every piece of land suitable for agriculture was used and therefore the farm is characterized by meadows, interrupted everywhere by very small fields. Along the old field ridges there are a large number of scree slopes, sometimes designed like terraces or walls, which gives one an idea of how much it cost to produce a crop from this soil.

    The existing building consists of a residential building, a cowshed from the 1950s, an earth cellar, two older sheds made of logs and a wooden shed made of upright timber. There are remains after even more constructions. After a long period of vacancy, encroachment and decay, the buildings have been repaired and maintained by Gunnarskogs Hembygdsförening since 1990.

    A great deal of work is being done to keep Lafallhöjden in good condition and to take care of it. But it has also had the positive side effect that the farm has been included in the national conservation plan for cultivated land and Lafallhöden is also of national interest for nature conservation.
