Røed gård, Heritage farm in Moss Municipality, Norway
Røed gård is a heritage farm in Moss Municipality featuring traditional Norwegian agricultural buildings centered around a main residence built nearly 300 years ago. The property includes the main house, several outbuildings, craft workshops, and a rose garden set within active farmland.
The farm was established around 300 years ago and has retained numerous original architectural features from past centuries, particularly in the main building. This building survived a 2010 fire that damaged other structures on the property.
The farm now functions as an arts center where glassblowers, jewelry makers, and other artisans have their workshops and display their work to visitors. This creative use gives the historical property a living purpose today.
Visitors can arrange guided tours of the main building and rose garden, and can purchase local crafts or enjoy baked goods at the cafe. The farm is accessible by car and invites leisurely exploration of the buildings and grounds at your own pace.
The property uses windmills to generate electricity while continuing its agricultural work, blending renewable energy with heritage farming. This combination of modern technology on a farm with centuries-old roots demonstrates how past and present can coexist.
