The Norway Building was produced in 1893 at Strandheim Brug, Orkanger. The building was commissioned by the Norwegian Government for The World’s Fair in Chicago, and modeled after the stave churches of the Middle Ages. One exception: It has windows. The Norway Building stayed in USA for 122 years until it was moved back to Norway by volunteers. The best preserved building from the 1893 Fair.

This was a fabulous place. Diverse collection of furniture, ceramics, silver, clothing, and objects d' art. Huge and beautiful layout on multiple floors. They are currently running an exhibit of 125 chosen items selected by a curious assortment of 125 people - everyone from university professors and art experts to children and a museum janitor. Supposedly the 125 best items from the collection. There is a fabulous book in English that you can borrow to read detailed description of each object and maybe some additional Norwegian history or cultural points. Nice gift shop too! 110 NOK (13 dollars) entry fee.
7. The Hiort Chapel
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 3 reviews
Director Peder Hiort died a rich man. He had no direct descendants. In his will he therefore decided that his fortune of 30,000 riksdaler should be the starting capital of a foundation with the aim of furthering arts and crafts, home industry, and other useful employment measures to improve the population’s industry and standard of living. The foundation he established in 1788 is still running. Peder Hiort built his own chapel by the church and lies embalmed in the cellar, together with his family, wearing his full mining uniform.

10. Roros Church
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 246 reviews
‘Bergstadens Ziir’ – better known as Roros Church – was built during the copperwork’s golden age ‘in God’s honour and as an adornment to the town. The church, which was completed in 1784, does justice to its name with its majestic location high above the timber buildings. The Directorate for Cultural Heritage regards the church as one of the ten most profiled churches in Norway. It is one of the country’s largest churches with seating for 1,600 people. The church has been newly opened after 2 years of extensive renovation and has now been restored to its former glory.

Yes, this was a very interesting Church, entry fee Nkr 50,00 and well worth the money. A large amount of history, and you can rent a guide.
