The picture has been taken in connection with the open-air mosque Disagården’s summer business in 2008. House 22: Smedja. Elingbo, the parish of Tierp. The second half of the 18th century. Practically every farm had its own forge. As the fire hazard was great, it stood far away from the yard. The house number refers to Upplandsmuséet’s booklet: The Disagården is a piece of upland cultural history told through houses and plantations, furnishings and objects. The archipelago is part of the upland cultural history told through houses and farms, furnishings and objects. Here the visitor gets an insight into how people lived in rural areas in the later part of the 18th century. Through the village the village meanders and along it are three farms with hourly boning houses, dwellings and fences. Behind Gränbygården mangården building is a spice and cabbage farm that stands in bloom from mid-July. A piece further away is the forge, the sauna and the small windmill. In the hot days of the summer, the rose sheep are usually in the shade under the eel tree next to the mill. A little further up the village street is a manor building from Bärby I Östervåla parish. In it there is a festive hall with a decorated interior from 1824 with portraits of Queen Kristina, Virgin Mary and Martin Luther, among others. The painting is executed by the folk artist Hans Wikström. Just outside the village, a small path leads up to the newly erected soldier.
