This view is the best and accessible by car- just park by the nursery. Great site for New years fire works- though be warned ..there are many many people there on New years Eve and some areas are closed at the top.On some sundays they have a cafe in the afternoon.

Anthony Gormley´s famous iron statues look you straight in the eye when you least expect them to be there. They are truly beautiful. Stavanger would not be the same without them.
8. Stavanger Cathedral
Overall Ratings

According to tradition the cathedral was built in the year 1125, after Sigurd Jorsalfarer named Stavanger as a cathedral city. Bishop Reinald of Winchester was responsible for its construction. The church was built in Anglo-Norman style, probably by English craftsmen. The church' patron saint is St. Svithun, and it is reputed that his arm was one of the church' original relics. In 1272 the cathedral was damaged by fire, after which it received a new chancel built in the Gothic style. Stavanger Cathedral is the only Norwegian cathedral from the Middle Ages that has retained its original appearance and been in constant use. Opening hours: Mon-Sun 11am-7pm, June-Aug. Tue-Thurs and Sat 11am-4pm, Sept-May, closed Mon and Fri. High Mass every Sunday at 11am. Morning Mass in the Bishop's Chapel every Wednesday at 8am Thursdays 11.15-11.45. Thursday Mass.

9. Iron Age Farm
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 100 reviews
Farmstead from the Migration Periode (350-550 AD)on the very top of Ullandhaug. The farm is reconstructed on the original archaeological site. Dressed in the style of the time, the mistress and men on the farm demonstrate and describe day-to-day life. Ypu are vely welcoem at Iron Age Farm where you can do several family activities. Children can try their hand at making fire with a fire-steel and flint or at spinning wooll on a spindle. And if you are lucky, you can taste The Lady of the House's freshly baked Iron Age bread.

If you want a unique experience and go back in time. This is a destination for the ones who want to go back in time and see how people where looking. The only place in Norway, where they have built homes like in the iron-age. Where you see the fire-place, how they made butter and bread. You can really see how they lived. The guide is explaining and there is two open houses. One which is newly rebuilt with light and shows all the parts of the house. The old one is from the 1970s and is in a different state. So, you can see how scholars are considering people used to live. Which is a refreshing. We can recommend to spend time here. The cafe also have good food, even a traditional soup to a good price. The museum has a big shop and also a modern house to give more knowledge to houses. If you have bought tickets to the Arkeologiske museum in central. Then this was free and it is lasting for 48 hours. So, you can go one day in the one in central and travel to Iron Age farm the next day. Something we did.

Bicycle over to visit the impressive monument Swords in Rock. From the village centre, continue along the shores of Mosvatn lake, then along Rv510 towards Sola. Mollebukta is a popular recreational area, especially in summer. Around 30 min. bicycle ride each way.
