Ål Bydamuseum is located just above Ål town center, towards Øvre-Ål. The museum consists of several historical buildings and artifacts from various parts of Ål municipality.
The museum was established in 1924 by Ål Museum Associtation, and shows life in the area through four main sections: the Leksvol farm, the upper area, the mountain farm and the crofter's farm. All the buildings are moved to the museum.
At Ål Bygdamuseum you can explore 31 buildings, including the finely decorated buildings from Settungsgard and Holto.
In the summer season you can visit the museum with a museum guide, who will give you a tour of the site and houses. Outside of these hours the museum is free to visit and provides a beautiful outdoor experience. We can also arrange guided tours for larger groups outside of our opening hours.
