Bohuslän has a history of extensive industrial stone masonry, dating back to 1842. During the peak of the stone masonry era, it was the largest and most important industry of the north of Bohuslän.  A visible consequence of this era are the quarries. They remain in the landscape, like open wounds in the mountainous landscape. The documentation from this period of history and the knowledge of stone cleaving that the stone masonry workers possessed are scattered and slowly forgotten. Since 2011 there have been discussions regarding the creation of a House of Stone, a living stone art and history centre where the documentation from the stone masonry era can be centralized and modern stone art and craft can be encouraged. The purpose of this project is to revive the interest of the stone masonry heritage and to encourage modern stone artists to explore and continue practicing the art of stone craft. The quarry in itself has been central to the project due to its direct link to the stone masonry era. By creating a House of Stone located inside an old industrial quarry, this project aims to attract visitors to experience the nature of the quarry and the cultural heritage that the quarry represents.
