Kværra

Kværra is a term that can refer to several things, most commonly a type of watercraft or a specific location. In a maritime context, kværra might describe a small, open boat, often used for fishing or transportation in coastal or inland waters. These boats are typically characterized by their simple construction and manual propulsion, such as rowing or poling.

Alternatively, kværra can be a place name. Several locations in Scandinavia, particularly in Norway, bear this name. These places are often associated with natural features like fjords, rivers, or agricultural landscapes. Historical settlements or geographical features may have been designated as kværra over time. The exact meaning and origin of the word can vary depending on the specific context and region. Understanding which kværra is being referred to usually requires additional information about its geographical or functional context.
