Kapp Melkefabrikk

The Kapp Melkefabrikk spans 10,000 square meters near Lake Mjøsa, featuring multiple exhibition spaces and cultural facilities within its industrial architecture.

Established in 1891, this facility gained international recognition as the first producer of canned condensed milk under the Viking Melk brand before Nestlé acquired it.

Mjøsmuseet operates its main documentation center here, while Kulturskolen Mjølkefabrikken provides arts education to more than 380 students throughout the year.

The complex includes several auditoriums and meeting rooms available for public use, with regular stops by the Skibladner paddle steamer at its waterfront location.

The facility transformed from a dairy factory into a business incubator in 2004, now housing multiple enterprises and serving as a regional cultural center.
