Discover Funding Opportunities

Innlandet fylkeskommune offers grants for the preservation of historic vessels. Private owners and managers of protected or preserved ships (freda eller verna fartøy) can apply for funding to support restoration and maintenance activities. The county council has been responsible for vessel grants since 2020. The grant program is designed to support the conservation of culturally and historically significant vessels that have been granted protected status by Riksantikvaren (the Norwegian Directorate for Cultural Heritage). The program provides funding for securing, restoration, and maintenance of these protected vessels. The funding level varies depending on the type of intervention required, and the total available funding varies annually based on allocations from the national budget. Applications are evaluated collectively and approved grants are valid for three years, providing flexibility for project implementation.
