Experience the beautiful garden

Every day during summer season and weekends in September

All day

The lush and well-kept garden is transferred back into what it looked like when Sigrid Undset lived here in the 1930s.

After Sigrud Undset bought the house, she immediately wanted to plant a garden. It was quite an achievement as 1500 lads of stone were driven away before the garden work could be started.    

Historic garden

It is a nice experience to take a walk in the garden. It is very beautiful with perennial beds, orchards, herb beds, stairs, walls, and gravel paths. Feel free to bring food and enjoy the beautiful surroundings and the birds that are singing.
