Konvensjonsgården

Konvensjonsgården is a two-story building with traditional Norwegian features including symmetrical windows and a prominent entrance on Verket street. The structure maintains its classical elements while serving today as both office space and a museum with exhibits about political history.

The building gained national importance in 1814 when it hosted negotiations that led to the Treaty of Moss, establishing Norway's union with Sweden following the Napoleonic Wars. This moment marked a turning point in the country's development.

The building tells the story of Norway's path toward political independence and shows how important this place was for national negotiations. Visitors can imagine themselves in the rooms where decisions were made that shaped the country.

The building is centrally located in Moss and easy to reach on foot, with clear access from Verket street. Visitors should allow enough time to explore the exhibits and can book tours in multiple languages.

The building functions today as an active office space while preserving its original architectural features from the early 1800s. This blend of everyday use and preservation creates a unique atmosphere for visitors.
