The waterfall "Kyrkjefossen" is located in the Fana cultural park just outside Bergen. The cultural park covers around 40 acres and is laid out in two areas: Elvarlid and Lunden. The areas are respectively north-west and south-east of the river Fanaelva. Elvarlid was formerly farmland, while Lunden was a hilly forest area where a rectory garden was laid out in the mid-19th century.

The garden was laid out according to an English pattern, with walking paths, a gazebo and a pond. Some of the vicarage garden was reclaimed during the 1996 renovation.

Close to the waterfall is a prominent mound - Resehaugen - which can be dated back to the Viking Age with its chieftain's grave from the 8th century.

Fossen Bratte (The waterfall "Bratte" - indicates that it's a steep waterfall. It's also called the Bridal Veil) is one of many spectacular waterfalls in Norway. There is also a lot of history attached to this one.

During the Second World War, the valley was the site of the battles at the Bratte waterfall. There was a barricade at the bend in the road where the waterfall spills out.

In April 1940, the Germanes advanced against Voss following three offensives: Along the Bergen Railway, through the Granvin-Skjervet valley and along the Hardanger Road. Here the waterfall Bratte formed an almost impenetrable barrier where it spills out from a narrow gorge. In the afternoon of 22 April 1940, German forces advanced against the Norwegian security forces and volunteer riflemen stationed at the waterfall. Today there is a memorial to the three fallen Norwegians.

There were three sniper team members who gave their lives in the fighting on 23 April 1940 when the Germans came from behind: Arne Soldal, Lars Vangdal and Sjur Mo.

A German also fell, and later two German soldiers died at the Bratte waterfall when their motorcycle failed to make the turn. In 1954, a car drove downhill, and the driver died.

More tragic history:
A French couple, René Zephir Laigle (aged 28) and Ginette Doux Laigle (aged 24) were on their honeymoon when they drove off the road on 13 July 1951. They drove off at the top of the waterfall, and both lost their lives. A commemorative plaque has been erected at the bottom of the valley.

Havrå is a farm with a history dating back to the Bronze Age.

"Havråtunet (or Havretunet) is a cluster farm along the southern shore of the island of Osterøy in Vestland county, Norway. Havrå is one of the last and best preserved of the common farm clusters on the western coast of Norway. Havrå was the first cultural environment to be protected under section 20 of the Norwegian Cultural Heritage Act.It was not connected to the national road network until late in the 1960s.

Havrå is situated on very steep terrain on the south side of the island of Osterøy, along the Sørfjorden. The farm area is shaped in a typical fashion for the steep terrain along the Western Norwegian fjords. It can be clearly seen from both the railway (the Bergen Line) and the highway that goes between the cities of Bergen and Oslo."
