Gain an appreciation for the beauty of nature and the values of freedom by walking through an outdoor art installation. Roseslottet – meaning Rose Castle – isn’t a fortification but rather a thought-provoking collection of outdoor paintings, sculptures and creative projects that depict how society can fight back against tyrannical rule to ensure a free future. It is a story that Norway knows well as Nazi Germany occupied the country during World War II. The five golden constellations that you will see at Roseslottet symbolize those five years of occupation. While meandering the boardwalk, you will view nearly 300 pieces of art that express the horrors of totalitarianism, ways to combat subservience to the state and the merits of a free society. Two Norwegian artist brothers created Rose Castle to celebrate the people and ideals that helped Norway survive the war years.
