At the ropeyard at Hardanger Maritime Centre, you can see for yourself how different kinds of rope are made by hand. Welcome!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This is the only ropeyard in use in Norway. Our ropemakers produce rope from:<\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n When a rope is made by hand, it is easy to adapt it to its intended use. We advice on what material is suited for your boat or project, and custom make every rope we make.<\/p>\n >>> Pricelist rope 2025<\/a><\/p>\n Our most important customers are those who own old traditional boats and vessels. The centre works on the reconstruction and restoration of these historical vessels. An antiquarian approach is used in projects like this, which means handmade rope is a must in the rigging.\u2028The small boat workshop<\/a> also produces new, classic traditional boats, and restores old boats that also need rope for thole pins and rigging.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In 1995, the centre employed its own ropemaker, Anja Hertzberg. She was the first person to have taken a craft certificate as a ropemaker in Norway for more than 40 years. Today we have two ropemakers educated and employed, and an apprantice.<\/p>\n \u2028Hardanger Maritime Centre is the only place in Norway keeping the rope making craft alive.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n The ropemakers also hold courses and give lectures at other venues. They often bring a small, mobile ropeyard with them so children and adults alike can make their own rope.\u2028 If you want to learn ropemaking at our ropeyard, you can sign up for the annual rope making workshop.<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\nMaking rope from natural fibres<\/h2>\n
