The Twist Gallery

Galleri Badehuset is an old bathing house from 1888. Today it is a art gallery for different Artist. Edvard Munchs father was a militært docter living beside. Edvard Munch maybe was her and took a bath.

One of the most characteristic buildings along the river Storelva in Ringerike is the former depot of the military camp Helgelandsmoen. It is the army camp's oldest and paradoxically also the tallest one. But the building represents a much richer history than its 136 years' service as a depot. The six floor tall building was initially put up next to the Norderhov church in 1820 as «Ringerikes local storage». It was a grain storage for all the rural areas in the Ringerike region. In addition, some of its rooms were used as custody rooms in the years 1830-1840. The building was sold on an auction in 1868. The military bought it, pulled it down and put it up where it stands today. It is now entirely protected. In the near future it will become an open art gallery and be part of the Galleri Klevjer. Therefore, Helgelandsmoen is no longer an army camp. Now you find several different activities, and many artists have their ateliers here. A dock has also been built at Helgelandsmoen allowing boats travelling on the river to dock here.
