Cist in Sogn og Fjordane. In the village of Flåm just next to the local road is a reconstructed stone cist.
The stone cist is 2,5 metres long and 60cm wide. It is oriented north-south and buildt of two rows of upright stone slabs three on the west side and four on the east. The cover stone was one large stone slab and two smaller. The stone cist was found when the local village road was constructed in the late 1800s.
The stone cist was reconstructed some years after on the other side of the road from the original location in a tiny park and it also has a information poster. It is unknown if there is any finds of artifacts from when the cist was moved.
