Bergen Art & Design Walking Tour KODE Art Museum & Arven silver factory 4hs

(4 Hours)

Description

You start this walking tour with our guide, visiting two of the main attractions in Bergen for art and design lovers. We will pay a visit to KODE 3 Museum, which The Rasmus Meyers Collection and a great compilation of works by Edvard Munch, one of the most renowned Norwegian painters. Among the highlights of the collection are paintings from the Golden Age of Norwegian art, as well as historical interiors from the Bergen area. The presentation includes highlights from the careers of other famous Norwegian artists such as J.C. Dahl, Harriet Backer, Erik Werenskiold and Gerhard Munthe. We continue our tour by visiting Arven´s workshops. In 1868 Theodor Olsen brought international expertise when he established his own sterling silversmithery and store and quickly became a leader in Bergen’s arts and crafts community. Following his death in 1890, the silver smithery and store continued under the name of Theodore Olsen managed by the Aase family for many generations until 2016 when it became Arven AS. Today, Arven is a modern and innovative factory which is constantly developing new and exciting products through bold design work in cooperation with contemporary designers but preserving traditional techniques and classic design. During your private visit you will be greeted by your host offering you a special welcome with a drink and a taste of delicious Norwegian local produce cheese and snacks, all served using their beautiful cheese slices and knives we create. Your visit continues with a presentation about the story of silversmithing in Bergen, about Arven, our history, our products, and our way of working. Afterwards there will time for your questions and participation to “show and tell” how each visitor can make their own stamped pendant! You are then guided to our workshop and witness where our silver cutlery and jewelries are crafted. There will be a little “ceremony” in the workshop where each visitor gets their own Arven medal.

Reviews

The tour to two castles was fabulous! WE enjoyed every part of this tour and the guide was very informative. Would go back to Copenhagen again for more time and definitely use Delta of Scandinavia.

Our tours with Delta of Scandinavia were very good. We had tours in Copenhagen and Stockholm. Both of our guides were very competent and knowledgeable. Plus they were both lovely women - spending touring time with them was a pleasure.

Delta of Scandinavia did an outstanding job for us for our trip to Norway to see the Northern Lights. The guides and drivers for our two city tours were exceptionally good, the drivers that handled our many transfers were great (and very careful on the snowy roads), and the accommodations were excellent. The Aurora Chase in Tromso afforded a great opportunity to see the Northern Lights. The guides were great and helped us with camera settings to get photos of the Lights. Malangen Brygger Lodge was outstanding - food was excellent and the staff could not have been more helpful to us senior travelers! Seeing the Lights fill the sky during a dogsled ride was a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
