Kongsberg - Town

In the market square of Kongsberg, on the right bank of the river, stands a large wooden church (1741-61), with a fine organ and church plate. Opposite the church, to the north, is a statue of Christian IV and in Hyttegate, to the east of the church, a small Silver-Mine Museum. On the other bank of the river, spanned here by the Nybro (New Bridge), is the Lågdal Museum, with a collection of antiquities from the surrounding area.
