Fossli Hotel

Fossli Hotel is situated just off Rv7 on top of the mountain, overlooking the Måbødalen valley and the Vøringfossen waterfall.

The hotel owns a Zimmermann piano where Edvard Grieg composed his Norwegian Folk Songs, Opus 66, in 1896.

However to make these plans come true, Garen had to have a better way to transport the building materials so that the horses might climb up the Måbødalen.

Fossli Hotel was designed by architect Fredrik Konow Lund (1889-1970) in Art Nouveau style.

Edvard Grieg lived in the hotel in the summer of 1896, and composed Norwegian Folk Songs, Opus 66, here.
