Elevated granary located in the open-air museum Jan Karlsgården.

The granary, which dates from 1771, originally stood at Mellangård in Hammarland. In 1933 it was moved to Jan Karlsgården where it can be seen during the museum's opening hours.

There are about twenty buildings at Jan Karlsgården. They have all moved from different parts of Aland to be placed in Jan Karlsgården. In this way, you can see Aland's former building and housing culture and show environments in which Alanders lived and worked.
