Gimle Gård, Manor house museum in Kristiansand, Norway

The white-painted manor house contains period furniture, paintings, and china collections displayed across multiple grand rooms and exhibition spaces.

Bernt Holm, a wealthy merchant, constructed Gimle Gård at the end of the 1700s as a summer residence outside Kristiansand's urban center.

The manor preserves five generations of Norwegian upper-class living through its original furnishings, decorative arts, and architectural features.

Visitors can reach Gimle Gård by taking bus lines M1, M2, or M3 from Kristiansand center to the Oddermarka stop, or by a 20-minute walk.

The property includes both a manor house museum and natural history exhibits, alongside Norway's largest collection of succulent plants in its botanical garden.
