Numedal

Numedal stretches along the Numedalslågen from the high mountains towards the lowlands of southeastern Norway. Its farms and villages retain an exceptional group of medieval wooden buildings, including the stave churches of Uvdal, Nore, Rollag and Flesberg. These churches and old farmhouses bear witness to the craftsmanship of communities that made their homes along the valley and in its wooded side valleys.
