Balders Hage

The residential property features a grand building situated at the innermost part of Larviksfjorden, southwest of the Langestrand neighborhood in Larvik.

Jakob Wilhelm Falch, a merchant and tobacco manufacturer, constructed the building as his family residence after acquiring the land from chamberlain Frederik Wilhelm Treschow in 1880.

The building represents the architectural heritage of late 19th-century Norwegian merchant residences, receiving recognition through a municipal building style award in 1991.

The property underwent extensive renovation in the 1980s with an investment of 20 million kroner, maintaining its structural integrity and historical features.

The estate changed its name to Fritzøe Villa in 1905 when Fritz Michael Treschow purchased it, though it later reverted to its original name Balders Hage.
