Ørje sluser Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

cervisvenator: Hi

While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for the cache owner and block other cachers from placing a cache in the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can’t do so forever.

Nothing seems to happen with this cache listing, so it is now archived, so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location. Also, if it hasn’t been done already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

(This reviewer note is in English so non-Norwegian cache owners, geocachers and cache reviewers can understand what it says.)

Thanks for your understanding,
Cervis Venator

Geocache Description:


Ørje sluser

Ørje sluser har en løftehøyde på til sammen 10 meter. Slusene manøvreres fortsatt med håndkraft, som ved åpningen i 1860. På vestsiden av slusene ligger slusemesterboligen og sluseassistentboligen, begge i sveitserstil. Ved øverste sluse står en minnestein over kanalbyggeren Engebret Soot. Denne ble reist i 1936, 150 år etter hans fødsel. På sommeren arrangeres teaterforestillinger og konserter i slusene.
