Sandeid church
The first church was built about 1100 (at the old place of sacrifice
by the churchyard from the Middle Ages- near by the existing chapel). This was a stave church
beeing enlarged in 1625, but falling to pieces in the 17.-century . In 1814
the stave church
was tear down
and replaced
by a small church without
steeple. This
church was in use until 1904, when the
existing church was build.

On the old churchyard is there an old
cross made of stone and a phallus.

From old times the farms down in the valley
had a right to
cut peat from the bogs at
the mountain dairy farm. The
peat was cut in the
early summer placed for
drying. Dry peat
was placed in the huts. In winter the
peat was transported on sledge
to the farms down in the walley. At
this time the woodland
were small and the peat was used in sted of fire wood
on the farms.
Brick walls and
parts from
25 peathuts in the area. Some of the huts was
used until 1950. No one
knows for shure when the huts was build, but
we guess it happened at the time the
woodland were reduced
all over the country at the end of the 1700. In
one of the bogs there is found clothes,
human hair and pearls.
The peathuts are in private, but Sandeid bondelag
has on voluntary communal work
restored 3 huts.

View from the
montain Hovda (591
moh) facing south . Far on the horizon and behind the haze we find Stavanger.
On the left is Sandeid. The highest top in the picture is Lysenuten (812 moh),
but the top in the middle of the picture,
Grytenuten, is a few metre taller then Lysenuten. The expressboat is
comming from Vikedal. Far away, beyond Sandeidfjorden, Vindafjorden, Krossfjorden, Ringafjorden og Nedstrandsfjorden
you'll find Ombo.
