Norway's only baronial mansion dates back to 1665 and sits on a gentle rise above the town. The period interiors include a collection of tapestries, an intact library and beautiful examples of Meissen and Royal Danish porcelain. Outside there is a stunning Renaissance rose garden. The Baroniet hosts excellent weekend concerts by eminent Norwegian musicians from mid-May to early September, and performances of Shakespeare by British actors, usually in late July.
You can also sleep here, in the farm annexe; dinners in the garden greenhouse can be booked with concert and other event tickets.
