Damsgård Manor, Wooden manor house in Bergen, Norway

The Damsgård Manor features classical Rococo architecture with a symmetrical facade, painted windows, and three distinct garden sections representing different historical periods.

Constructed in the 1770s for Minister of War Gyldenkrantz, the manor served as one of approximately 70 luxury countryside retreats for Bergen's wealthy residents.

The property includes the Master's garden with geometric paths, the Mistress's garden with natural ponds, and an English garden developed around 1830.

The manor offers guided tours during summer months, with adult admission at 160 Norwegian Krone and group discounts available for parties of ten or more.

The structure maintains its original eighteenth-century interior and stands as Europe's most preserved wooden Rococo building from that period.
