Borregaard Hovedgård is a place where history lives quietly within the walls. Set high above the Glomma River, people have lived and worked here for more than a thousand years—from a royal estate in the Viking Age to a distinguished manor, and into its present life today.

Layers of history still shape the surroundings, giving the house a sense of calm and presence that can be felt in every room.

Once home to the estate’s staff, the Staff Residence has been carefully restored into an atmospheric event house where historic character meets understated elegance. Here, smaller gatherings and professional groups find a calm and private setting.

At the heart of the house is the event kitchen—a place for shared experiences where food, conversation, and presence come together. Around the table, there is space for both celebrations and meaningful meetings.

Several flexible rooms allow for gatherings with character, in surroundings where tradition and quality still set the tone.
