Kongsberg Norway - City Tour & Drone, 4k

The town of Kongsberg is comfortably located among the mountains of the picturesque Norwegian region of Buskerud, on the banks of the turbulent Numedalslågen River.

The town was originally called Konningsberg, meaning King's Mountain, and was founded in 1624 by King Christian IV for ore mining. Kongsberg Silver Mines (Kongsberg Sølvverk) is Norway's oldest and most famous mining company.

Mining stopped only in 1957, and during that time about 1,350 tons of silver were mined. In 1770, about four thousand people worked in the mines, that is, then Kongsberg was the second most populous city in Norway after Bergen.

Also in 1686, a mint was established in Kongsberg, which to this day is the only enterprise minting Norwegian coins.

Later, after the decline in silver mining and the devastating fire of 1810, in 1814 the government decided to locate the arms industry in Kongsberg, which is still the main enterprise in the city.

And just outside the city, there is a ski resort. Here you can ski on 10 slopes with a total length of about 10 kilometers. Also at the foot, there are 55 kilometers of prepared trails for cross-country skiing.

We went for a walk into the city before Catholic Christmas. By the way, December 19th was the winter solstice, that is, the shortest daylight hours! Which greatly limited our shooting time, but at the same time gave the film a nice warm tone even in the middle of the day!

The city is located on two banks of Norway's second-largest river, Numedalslågen. And every time we crossed the bridge, we admired the stormy streams bursting out from under the openwork ice with a roar. Within the city limits, there are 3 waterfalls on the river, one of which has a hydroelectric power station (Gamlebrofoss kraftverk). Its height is 14 meters and construction was completed in 1971.

Also walking along the river bank, we came across beautiful sculptures: the Glass Tree (Glasstreet av Vincent van Leeuwen) and the Mirror Church (Glasskirken) in winter they have a special magic and fit perfectly into the frozen nature.

The bright spot of the city is the Clarion Collection Hotel Kongsberg, built in 2022, as well as a shopping center and apartment buildings. Kongsberg railway station has been in operation since 1871 and from here you can take a direct train to Oslo in 1 hour and 20 minutes!

And in this video, we invite you to spend one winter day with us in the city of Kongsberg. We hope you enjoy the video because, despite the cold, frozen hands and batteries, we tried very hard to show you different angles of this cozy town.

A trip to Kongsberg, Norway! ++Nybrufossen hydropower plant, Lågdalsmuseet, etc | Pinayodyssey

It was a short trip to Kongsberg, but was a good one! Visited the Nybrufoss hydropower plant which uses water from the 3rd longest river in Norway, the Numedalslågen. Then, we visited the Lågdalsmuseet, an open-air museum with 33 traditional houses and farmy animals to pet! The Silver Mines was closed, so I only have a pic of the facade.

Kongsberg is a lovely and lively city!

The church was built with galleries, a chancel and cross naves – an architectural style that was unique in Europe during the Middle Ages. This style has come to be known as Nummedals-type. Decoration are from different periods. Nore is decorated with tendril and animal carvings. Animal characters featured include dragons and lions.


The church has a central mast, that was originally the support for a tower, mostly likely containing church bells. The walls and ceiling of the interior are decorated with murals, among them scenes from the Bible presented as riddles. The church has been remodeled several times, with many original parts are preserved. The church was partly rebuilt in the 1600s and 1700s. The chancel was replaced in 1683 and the spokes of the nave in the first half of 18th century. The church received a new roof in 1730. Comprehensive repair was carried out in 1927.

Tur til Skrim grottene i Kongsberg

Info (In Norwegian):
- Grottesystemet som sies å være omlag 400 m langt. Man kryper inn i gjennom en langsgående åpning på bakken. Med en gang du har krypet inn er du alt våt, og plassen blir mye bedre. Innover kan du fortsette å følge vannet helt til du kommer til en vannlås, når du har kommet ditt kan du bare snu, og gå tilbake. På veien tilbake har du også en mulighet til å ta til høyre, og komme ut like nedenfor der du kom inn.

Kongsberg Silver Mines / Kongsberg Sølvverk (Norway/Norge)

(EN) The silver mines of Kongsberg, in Buskerud county in Norway, constitute the largest mining field in Norway, with over 80 different mines. It was the largest pre-industrial working place in Norway, with over 4,000 workers at its peak in the 1770s and supplied over 10% of the gross national product of the Danish–Norwegian union during its 335-year-long history: over 450,000 man-years were expended in the production.
The town of Kongsberg houses the Norwegian Mining Museum, which houses collection of silver, tools, and machinery utilised by the miners, engineers, and doctors. Silver was first discovered between the 1 July and 5 July 1623. The story says that two small children - Helga and Jacob - were out shepherding their cattle at the top of Gruveåsen hill. They had an ox with them which scraped on the side of the mountain. They could see something shining and glimmering, and they picked it up and took it home to their father. Recognizing it as silver and quite valuable, he melted it and brought it to the town of Skien in Telemark county to sell it. In Skien he was arrested, the police finding it suspicious that someone would attempt to sell silver at such a low price.
Being convinced that he was a thief, he was given the choice between telling where he had found the silver, or being sentenced to hard labour. He chose to tell the authorities he had found the silver in Southern Sandsvær, which was the old name for Kongsberg. The king of Norway and Denmark at the time, Christian IV, came to Norway the following year and founded the town of Kongsberg in 1624.(Wikipedia).
