Damsgaard Manor

Photo © Bergen Guide

This lovely 18th century manor house is in the suburb of Laksevaag, only 3 kilometers west of Bergen’s center, on Highway 582. Erected in the 1770´s, Damsgaard Manor was the most splendid manor in the city at the time. It has recently been restored and is now open to the public as a museum, with gardens recreated as they might have been 200 years ago, displaying flowers, shrubs, trees, vegetables and herbs of that period as well as fountains, sculptures, a duck pond and carp pool.

Situated approx. 4 km from center of Bergen.
