Arendal also offers an up-and-coming art scene. A quick stroll down the block from our hotel you will find an exciting contemporary art gallery, ARTENDAL, which is a branch of the reputed Bomuldsfabrikken Art Hall. At ARTENDAL you can admire and buy the works of some of Norway’s leading contemporary artists.
A mere 2 kilometers from our hotel, you can visit Bomuldsfabrikken Art Hall (meaning “Cotton Factory”), which is Southern Norway’s largest location for contemporary art. Their exhibits are free of admission and as an added bonus, the old factory is located by the beautiful lake of Langsæ.
On your way back to the city center, you can swing by KUBEN, Arendal and Agder’s (county) museum. KUBEN (“the Cube”) is a modern addition to Arendal’s architectual expression and represents the coming together of history and contemporary art.
Joining this trend, Lille Hotell is one of the first hotels in Norway launched with a focus on street art.
