Before Svolvaer took over as the commercial centre of Lofoten, Kabelvag held that role. About 1,638 people live in this village in Vaagan municipality, Nordland. The Lofoten Cathedral - actually a parish church, but the largest wooden church in northern Norway - was built in 1898 to serve the thousands of fishermen who gathered for the annual Lofoten cod fishery. The Lofoten Museum documents this fishing history in restored buildings along the waterfront.
Kabelvag is quieter than neighbouring Svolvaer but benefits from the same dramatic mountain and fjord scenery. The Galleri Espolin, dedicated to the work of Kaare Espolin Johnson, displays paintings of northern Norwegian coastal life. The village's sheltered harbour has been in use since the Viking Age.
Guesthouses, rorbu cabins, and a few larger establishments in the Svolvaer-Kabelvag area provide accommodation. The Lofoten tourism season peaks in summer, but the northern lights draw increasing numbers of winter visitors.
