Monument in Ådalen

The Ådalen shootings (Skotten i Ådalen)), was a series of events in and around the sawmill district of Ådalen, Kramfors Municipality Ågermanland Sweden. in May 1931. During a protest on May 14, five persons were killed by bullets fired by Swedish military troops called in as reinforcements by the police.

Thats why they made this monument.

After we had been to Ådalen, we drove over the Ångerman River again. But now on the old bridge.

We also visited a shop named "Höga Kustens konsthantverk". There they were selling jewellery made of  rocks.  I  bougt a little penguin  made of rock crystal. (in the middle of the picture)
They also showed rocks.  When they build the High Coast Bridge they found diabas.
