Bærums Verk
In our beautiful outdoor area at Bærums Verk you will find the sculpture park. Among the idyllic buildings along the river, you can freely view 30 sculptures designed by Norways foremost artists.
Modern art in a historical environment
The sculpture park at Bærums Verk aims to gather the best of the most renowned Norwegian sculptors of our time. New sculptures each year in combination with the permanent exhibition show a wide range of beautiful and representative works of art.
It is over 400 years since Bærum Verk was established, and we are proud that the place and business still flourish and live in the best possible terms. Several centuries of cultural history is linked to the products of the ironworks - countless ovens and cast iron products are brilliant examples of "sculptures" created at Bærum Verk.
It is our hope that the sculpture park contributes to Bærum Verk's appearance as something very special, while creating joy and dedication among our many visitors. The sculpture park shows a number of sculptures by prominent Norwegian sculptors.
A big thank you to the many Norwegian sculptors who have been participating in their sculptures in a positive and generous way through many years.
