Villa Fridheim, Fairy tale museum in Krødsherad, Norway.
Villa Fridheim occupies 1000 square meters across multiple floors, featuring large arched windows and a 30-meter tower on the southwestern side.
Timber merchant Svend Haug commissioned the construction of Villa Fridheim in 1890, and his widow Thea completed the project after his death in 1891.
The museum exhibits focus on Norwegian folklore collectors Asbjørnsen and Moe, with displays of puppet tableaux and fairy tale paintings throughout the building.
Visitors can enjoy traditional Norwegian dishes like rømmegrøt and pastries in the café while overlooking Krøderfjorden from the terrace.
The building combines Swiss chalet architecture with Dragestil elements, showcasing triple-crowned spires on all gables and a slate-covered roof.
