Bærums Verk

CultureTor Ingar Oesterud28. July 2019

Today Bærums Verk is a unique marketplace situated in the authentic surroundings of the historical ironworks that was the lifeblood of Bærum since the early 17th century.

Handelsstedet Bærums Verk has roughly 50 shops, artisans, workshops, galleries and eateries. Verksgata, which consists of old houses for labourers from the 18th century, among other things, is open seven days a week all year round. Here you can find smithies, glass blowers, silversmiths, galleries, eateries and unique shops. Today the old foundries are a place of trade with a large selection of interior decoration stores, as well as stores one would find in any local mall. Every year at the beginning of June, the sculpture park opens Bærums Verk with a new exhibition lasting all the way into October. Read more about Bærums Verk
