| Summary: | The archaeological open-air museum Gene Fornby (The Ancient Village of Gene - author’s translation) is an archaeological reconstruction completed in 1991 that is based on the excavation of a nearby ancient settlement dated mainly to the Roman Iron Age and the Migration Period. For many years now, the politicians of the City Council of Örnsköldsvik have been debating on the ‘use’ of Gene Fornby. They have shown little or no understanding of its cultural or historical value, but instead have just discussed the economical use of the establishment, and thereby have a political agenda to demolish the archaeological reconstructions of Gene Fornby. |
