Grimelund gård, Heritage farm in Vestre Aker, Norway
The Grimelund estate includes a whitewashed main house, barn, storehouse, side building, and smithy arranged around a central courtyard with an ash tree.
During World War II in 1941, resistance members held meetings at Grimelund farm, forming a group called Kretsen that became part of the Norwegian resistance leadership.
The main building combines Louis XVI style at the entrance with Empire architecture throughout the rest of the structure, reflecting Norwegian architectural developments.
The property maintains its complete farm layout despite the surrounding area transforming into residential neighborhoods after World War II.
The farm served as a political center where Hans Hansen Mørk, representing Aker farmers, participated in Norway's first proper parliamentary assembly.
