On the ground floor, you'll find Bjørg's gallery, with her watercolors cel-
ebrating the beauty of Norway, and Arthur's paintings, celebrating the beauty
of women. Upstairs is a free exhibit of historical knickknacks, contributed by
locals wanting to preserve treasures from their own families' past. You'll see a
medicine cabinet stocked with old-fashioned pills, an antiquated tourist map,
lots of skis, and WWII-era mementos. A wheel in the wall once powered a
cranethatcouldwinchupgoodsfromthefjordbelow(beforetoday'sembank-
ment was built, when this store was right on the waterfront). While there are
no written English explanations, Bjørg is happy to explain things.
