Hadeland Folkemuseum

Hadeland Folkemuseum contains more than 30 historical buildings from the 17th to 20th centuries, displaying rural Norwegian architecture and daily living traditions.

Founded in 1913, the museum maintains collections of original items from local farms, including farm implements and a reproduction of the 11th-century Dynna stone.

The Documentation Center houses photographs, archives, and objects that tell the story of life in the Hadeland region through different time periods.

Visitors can access guided tours of old houses and Tingelstad church during summer, with a cafeteria operating on weekends and a gift shop selling local items.

The museum grounds include Halvdanshaugen, a burial mound from the Viking Age connected to Halfdan the Black, a regional king of historical significance.
