    Norsk Bergverksmuseum.(Mine and mining museum)
  • Tip Rating:
  • The old silver mines with the toy train taking you several kilometers into the mountains lies in Saggrenda about 8km from the center of Kongsberg along the E134 road.

    The mining museum that also contains a collection of old coins from the royal norwegian mint that lies next to it is worth a visit. It also has a ski museum.(Located in center of town)

    Beautiful nature
  • Tip Rating:
  • Another view of the river. I found there a real paradise for walkers and people that want to have a direct contact with nature and relax his mind. The only bad thing can be the rain... I know it rains a lot there!!

    Enter the Silvermines of Kongsberg!
  • Tip Rating:
  • Sølvgruvene, Norsk Bergverksmuseum

    Take a drive with the little train into the mines and explore how people worked in this Silvermine near the town of Kongsberg not far from Oslo.
    A quarter of an hour we sat in the little train likes packed prisoners, without any comfort in complete darkness.
    Site museum mine. Mine trail running 2300 m underground. Shaft lift. Walking tour of the silver mines.
