Skattkammeret Museum – 260 years of history

As the name suggests, our museum offers an experience and an exciting journey through Norway’s largest glass and crystal production spanning 260 years.

The exhibition takes us from the first bottles of the 18th century – which traveled all the way to India – to the first crystal glasses of the 1850s, which laid the foundation for the glassware we adorn our festive tables with today. Here, you can see magnificent crystal with richly cut decorations, glass and crystal for various purposes with hand-painted, sandblasted, and engraved designs.

“Skattkammeret” Museum’s exhibits span three floors and tell countless stories from the three centuries the glassworks has existed.
