The Solberg Tower by ostfold's E6 has now been opened. For visitors it will become a landmark offering unexpected experiences. People have lived in and crossed this landscape for thousands of years. Norway's greatest concentration of rock art is here, and within a relatively small area are famous burial grounds and renowned fortresses, medieval churches and stately homes. The Solberg Tower stands as a fitting gateway to this proud heritage, and the visitor will leave here better informed, with a sense of wonder, and a wish to explore further. It has been designed as a living meeting point which can serve as a centre for activities. And not least of all help to increase our understanding of the ongoing work of conserving ostfold's heritage and landscape. The task of making the rich cultural sites along highway 110 between Skjeberg and Fredrikstad available to the public began in the 1950s. At Solberg the so-called Road of the Ancients meets the new E6. By the junction travelers can stop at a lay-by where art/architecture/information combine spectacularly. Not only will the 30 meter high tower be a landmark for travelers arriving in ostfold and Norway, but from the top of it visitors can see for themselves the way the heritage sites relate to the landscape. The famous sites of Solberg and Hornnes are close to the tower and some 100 others are nearby.
