What this is
fagelsjo.com is an independent, non-commercial information site about the village of Fågelsjö in Ljusdal Municipality, Sweden. It is not affiliated with the municipality, the heritage society or the farm museum – their official site is fagelsjo.nu. The aim is to gather what is scattered across many places: history, visitor information and the practicalities residents and holiday-home owners need.
