About the Karl Oskar House: Swedish novelist Vilhelm Moberg visited the Chisago Lakes area in 1948 and subsequently wrote his acclaimed series (The Emigrants, Unto a Good Land, The Settlers, and Last Letter Home). Moberg’s fictional characters Karl Oskar and Kristina Nilsson were based on his research of real life Swedish settlers in the Chisago Lakes area.
The Karl Oskar House was Karl Oskar and Kristina Nilsson’s third home in the novel series. The name of the house, Nya Duvemåla, is a reference to Kristina’s fictional Swedish home.
