History
[edit]Gottne has very old origins; among other things, arrowheads of flint have been found that probably dates back to the Neolithic Times (about 3,000 years before Christ).
Transportation
[edit]A few kilometers west of Gottne, there was a railway station along the Main Line Through Upper Norrland, Gottne Station, where a settlement grew. However, this expansion was discontinued when the station was closed down in 1963. The area around the former station is now known as Västra Gottne.
Population
[edit]In recent years, Gottne has become a Population declining area (Swedish: Avfolkningsbygd).
