Turisten

Turisten is a passenger vessel preserved on land in Aremark Municipality that showcases early 20th-century maritime engineering. The boat displays the hull construction and mechanical systems typical of vessels that once traveled Norwegian waterways regularly.

The vessel was built during an era when waterways served as the primary transportation routes linking remote communities. After being retired from service and brought ashore, it remains as a reminder of maritime commerce's role in regional growth.

The designation of Turisten as a cultural property acknowledges its role in shaping local maritime traditions and community connections in Aremark Municipality.

The site is best explored on foot, with the vessel situated in a quiet, accessible location that welcomes walkers. Wear sturdy shoes and plan for outdoor viewing, as the experience depends on weather conditions throughout the year.

The vessel represents one of Norway's preserved examples of early 20th-century passenger transportation infrastructure in the Østfold county region.
