Visnes Gruvemuseum
Local history museum
👍👍 It nice to know that norways historia😊😊🇳🇴🇵🇭 Visnes er et gammelt gruveområde. I 1865 fant skjerperen Mauritz Kartevold fra Jæren en rik kobbererts på «Vigsnes». Dette ble starten på en omfattende gruvedrift som varte fra 1865 til 1972. Fram mot 1895 var Vigsnes Kobberverk ett av de størte kobberv...

👍👍 I can't single out a reason for why I love this place. I might be biased, as I went to technical school at the east end of the building, and helped out with aircraft restoration at their workshop for two years. They have a wondeful collection of civilian and military aircraft. The museum is split in...

👍👍 Incredibly nice room. Much to look at for both the big and the small. Unfortunately, we did not have time to attend the tour in the main building, but will definitely return. A lot of space to go round, great plants, an interesting museum with animals that lived many hundreds of thousands of years...

👍👍 Such a cool historical place! Even with the building closed there was much to look at on the outside and peeking thrive the windows. It's like stepping back in time. Beautiful nature and walking paths too.

👍 A gem on Østre Toten. Both summer and winter! Lots of local history. Stenberg farm museum is idyllically located in fairly close proximity to the Sillongen Hotel and conference centre. Here is a great park and many beautiful buildings to look at. Local sources have it that there are ghosts here at n...

Kolbeinstveit, Ryfylkemuseet
Local history museum
👍👍 We came here by chance and without knowing what this place was and what to expect. Immediately we were nicely greeted by a young boy and girl offering us a tour of the old farmhouse. It was quite interesting to see how Norwegians lived in the past. Absolutely wonderful hosts.

Vadsø Museum - Ruija kvenmuseum, Varanger museum
Local history museum
😐 This seemed like an interesting topic, the Kven (Finnish speaking) people of northern Norway. However almost nothing was translated into English. This really limits the accessibility of the facility to foreign visitors. They could have followed the example of their sister museum in Kirkenes which ha...

👍👍 Cozy Christmas market that I hope will be held next year as well. Was there on Sunday 4 December. Incredibly cozy and you almost slip right into your childhood again. Should also have become the place where someone can stand to sell vegetables, fruit and flowers as it was in the square in the past ❤...

Gjøvik Gård
Local history museum
👍 It's a big open park. But there's hardly much activities going on. In the summer it would be nice but I think the trees block the sun so it doesn't get to warm. And in the summer people want sun!
