Vøienvolden gård, Heritage farm in Sagene district, Norway
Description

History
The farm was originally established before 1629 as a property on Bymarken and took its current form in the late 1700s under merchant Jacob Schøyen. This transformation created an organized farm layout serving agricultural operations.
