12. THE TELEMARK FARMSTEAD

Telemarkstunet

Next to Raulandsakademiet, a centre for traditional cultural studies in Norwegian folk art and music, you will find the Telemark Farmstead (Telemarkstunet); a collection of traditional log buildings from the area.

There is a handicraft exhibition at LÄven (the barn), a wood fired stone oven bakery at Eldhuset (the firehouse) and some periods of handicraft workshops in the other buildings. Other activities include outdoor concerts, guided tours in the buildings and workshops, nature walks and games for children.

Open during the summer and on agreement.

Telemark has long traditions with tourism. An English tourist named Biddulph is one out of many who has been amazed by the buildings and scenery in Telemark. Read his comments.
