Hyttbäcken - a charming 100-year old farm
a tourist attraction in Hedemora in the South of Dalarna
In the year 1990 Hyttbäckens Gård was opened as a touristgoal. About fifty guests assembled.The touristchef Kjell Rosén hold the dedicatory speech and cut the blue/yellow ribbon to the woodshed, where the new visual show: ´Hedemora welcomes you´ was shown. It is still very popular.
Hyttbäckens Gård - a paradise behind the firhedge, a journalist wrote in the towns daily. Here comes touring coaches for lunch, to experience electronics multimedia-shows, have a tour aound the Anné-Trädgården and visit the handicraft-shop.

With the red buildings surrounding the yard in the old fashion way and with the rural scen all around by the lake Viggen 7 km outside the nearest town Hedemora Hyttbäckens Gård welcomes you with repainted ornament of flowers above the windows.
The woodshed has been restored and a stove installed - now a bistro for luncheon-guests. And so are the building where the tractors previously were put up - now ´the grand-stuga´. Here you also will find the exhibition with woven pictures.
In the attick on the top Tage Ulmerud shows his unique multi media visual arts: crossfading with two or several projectors with sounds.
In the timbered storehouse is now the handicraft-shop. Straight across the farmyard is bed & breakfast in the little cottage.
On the back of the main house is a new terasse constructed where lunch are beeing served. From here you have a nice view over the rather new project Anné-
Garden.

The cabinet-maker and neighbour Olle Olsson presented Ann Stenback with a cock, which has been Hyttbäcken´s souvenir and are sold in the handicraft-shop but in a smaller size and decorated with flowers by Ann.
Try mouse over!

New constructed terasse, where Trelleborg´s fotballs-team had buildt up with Hyttbäcken´s lasagna before meeting Borlänge. The resultat 4-0 to Trelleborg!. (Left).
Hyttbäcken is asleep in it´s winter-time during the newcomer´s first year 1987/88 with plenty of snee. In the weaving studio on the first floor Ann is weaving her first products after two years school in weaving. If you are living in an old farm you have to live up to old times knowledge!
Ann in the window of the handicraft-shop. The lead mounting has been made by her brother Jan Stenback, the fifth generation´s of glazier. The design of the window is more than hundreds years old and was nearly to be forgotten in the beginning of the 1900th century. At that time Ann´s grandfather Lars Stenback was given the advice by a leading personality in the world of culture, Gustaf Ankarcrona, to start to make this lead mounting again. So he did. Today it can be seen all over Sweden.

A touringcoache has arrived with 50 tourists to Hyttbäckens Gård with lunch and a multi media show on the program. Two musicians with accordions are leading the way.

The first Summer a simple sign gives the tourists a a little information. We made it all by ourselves. And so are the trend still. (Right)
The first Summer 1987 we didn´t know either of the terasse or the Anné-Garden. At that time the wild flower-field reached all the way down to the farmer´s corn-field..
