Bragernes

Also part of Bragernes are several surrounding residential areas, including Øren, Underlia, Hotvet, Landfalløya, Toppenhaug, Strøtvet and Brakerøya.

Immediately north of Bragernes is the Bragernes Hill (Bragernesåsen), a large recreational woodland area with an extensive network of trails and paths, some with magnificent views of central Drammen.

Its well-known altarpiece with the Resurrection by Adolph Tidemand has been copied in many other churches within Norway.

Bragernes Torg maintains a number of urban functions and provides the setting for numerous events.

Its history starts in 1866, when most of Bragernes was affected by a great fire that devastated 388 buildings.
