KODE stewards almost 50,000 objects that can be experienced in four museum buildings in Bergen city centre, KODE 1-4, and in the homes of the composers Ole Bull, Harald Saeverud and Edvard Grieg. Welcome to KODE!

Reviewed By kay186370 - Reykjavik, Iceland

There were 4 galleries that were open, including KODE KUNSTALL (1 gallery out of the 5 was closed), and each had a different feel, from ecclectic and modern to landsacpes, Edvard Munch and Picasso - just wonderful. My advice is to use your Bergen Card when you buy a ticket, but when you consider how much you see this is truly great value for money, with or without the Bergen Card discount. The galleries are situated in the centre of town around the lake with serene and beautiful views. Even with the covid requirements and restrictions visiting the galleries was such a lovely and peaceful experience. The staff were so welcoming and helpful too. If you have ever wondered what to do on one of Bergen's wet days - go to the galleries! You need three hours to take your time in all of them, more if you want to stop in the café and still go at a leisurely pace.

Dalane Folkemuseum is a regional museum for Dalane, the southernmost part of the county Rogaland, encompassing the municipalities Bjerkreim, Lund, Sokndal and Eigersund. The museum is located in idyllic surroundings just outside Egersund. Bulit around 1850, it was originally the location of district judge Christian Feyer’s country estate. The area later housed a German military encampment during World War 2. The beautiful garden, the buildings and the larch forest make out the museum’s framework. The exhibitions give an insight into everyday life in Dalane during the 1800s and early 1900s. Thematic exhibitions focus on agriculture, traditional handicrafts and World War 2. With its large variety, the museum offers something to suit the taste of every visitor. Guided tours continuously during the day.
