The Fisherman's House at Højerup:
The Memory House stands as a visible memorial to the working population on the coast of Stevns Klint.
Fishing from the dangerous and inhospitable coast with small, light boats could not provide a family with their daily bread.
The yield from the small plots of land was also insufficient, so the men had to supplement their income by cutting stone in the chalk quarry. It was a harsh life. When the men had landed with the catch of fish, the wives took over, picking the fish off the nets and ensuring they were sold, while the men went to do the heavy work in the chalk quarry.
The house was built around 1820 with oak half-timbering, which stands on flint sills from the chalk quarries. The fields are filled with chalkstone and on the back of the house, the thatched roof extends over the back of the bread oven.
Through the two half-doors, one enters the frammerset, from which there is access to the open chimney. From here, there are firing openings to the washing-up copper, baking oven and storage oven.
The house was moved from its original location in Højerup to its current location by the church pond in 1948 by Selskabet Højeruplund On the initiative of landowner J. Christiansen, Louisenborg.
