Called Sørlandet, Norway's South Coast is known for its rocky coastline, its whitewashed houses and its idyllic archipelago. This warmest area in the country draws many resdents for a summer holiday. Kristiansand, the biggest city here and fifth-largest in all of Norway, has many lovely beaches, a very good zoo (Norway's most visited attraction) and a number of historic buildings. These date from the period of the city's 17th-century founding and are located in Posebyen, the old town area.

I the southend part of Norway you may find a great sight; the “Caves of Brufjell”. But in order to get there you have to climb down a wall using only a few scattered steel handles fastened into the rock. This achiement however will get you to a magnificient place where the sea through thousands of years has eroded the rocks leaving a very speciel sight. Very much worth the effort.

A different experience. Listen to poems, music and sounds from a chair. Poems by: Vilhelm Krag (1871-1933), Norway and Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson (1832-1910, Norway. At the site this Listening station is a local WiFi network, not connected to the Internet. It is a place for contemplation. Look at the horizon and listen

Movik Fort is a former German fort in a class of its own. It is of great national and European significance and is one of our National Fortifications.

For de som liker å gå på tur, er Hågåsen på Hidra et godt alternativt. Det er fjelltoppen bak Kirkehamn som ligger idyllisk til med god utsikt mot havgapet.Hågåsen har også mye historikk da det var et kystbatteri under krigen. Det er satt opp infotavler og man kan besøke ruinene, noe som gjerne faller i god smak hos barna.Ps. Hold på matpakken da det er beitende sauer rundt.
An easy 30min walk from Kirkehavn township. I was amazed by the remains of the German fortification and the views are stunning.

DS Hestmanden is a sailing monument paying hommage to the Norwegian warsailors. The ship is the only remaining Norwegian vessel from the merchant fleet who provided supplies for the allied forces in both world wars. A hihlight of her career was when she took part in the allied forces' invation of Normandie, the "Operation Overlord" in June 1944. She miraculously avoided all attacks from submarines and bombs and was in active duty for more than 50 years before she was put out of business in 1964. She was built in 1911 and is currently in the final stage of complete restoration after 30 years of work. The museum will open for public in May 2017.
