This is a special chance to experience the renowned Fogelbo, right next to Nordia House. In Swedish, fogelbo means “bird nest” and is derived from the Fogelquist family name, which means “bird on a branch.” Fogelbo has been in the Fogelquist family since the 1950s. Ross Fogelquist, who grew up in the property still currently resides in the house.
Swedish immigrant, Oscar Olson purchased the land and hired Henry Steiner to construct the cabin between 1938 and 1940 - don't miss this special chance to see inside this home on the National Register of Historic Places.
