If you're interested in wood chopping and chipping, take a guided tour around this tribute to an important local industry. Over the bridge, 4km east of town, it commemorates Norway's first steam-powered sawmill (1853). It's definitely of niche interest, perhaps even rainy-day tourism, but local culture survives through places like this.
