The first act started here.
Henrik Ibsens birthtown.
Opens in the anniversary year, 2028.
Over the next two years, Ibsen’s childhood home at Venstøp will be transformed into a large construction site. The barn will be converted into a year-round museum, and the main house will be restored to the time when Henrik Ibsen and his family lived there.
We will reopen in our anniversary year, 2028! Until then we offer you a variety of Ibsen-walks and Ibsen-information at our museum in Brekkeparken, in the city center.
