      History


      In 1983, an earthquake with a magnitude between 4 and 4.5 on the Richter scale occurred in Solberg.
      In 2004, there was a fire in a large number of the cottages as well as in a service building and in a barn. Nowadays, most of it has been rebuilt.
      In 2010, a gold nugget of three grams was found in a stream in Solberg, which by Swedish standards is a large piece. Already historically, there were suspicions that there could be gold in Solberg In the 18th and 19th centuries, gold was searched for in Solberg. It was test mined in Gruvberget about 100 years ago and the rumor spread about a vein under the village church. The last big gold hunt was in the 40s when they even drilled for gold but without much success.
