Fengselet - the old prison

The cultural foundation Fengselet (the prison) is a green oasis in the middle of Hønefoss with a historical ambience and the town's finest outdoor serving. Here, you can partake in cultural arrangements for children and adults. Enjoy a good meal or take a rest on the bench in the garden. Look in at an old cell, let yourself be inspired by the art or rock yourself through the summer evening.
With us, you can book venues for meetings or parties. Our unique premises are well suited for everything from board meetings to christenings and confirmations. The food is delivered from the Brasserie Fengselet. Make a choice between a simple dish and a full course party menu.
