This is a museum of original Bergen houses situated right at the sea front and within walking distance from our house. It has a very cosy atmosphere, and you do not need to buy a ticket if you just wish to wander in the streets there and feed the birds or enjoy a piknik at the grass. The cafe at Gamle Bergen Museum is a really romantic place. It is open in the summer from June through August. Quite pricy, but worth stepping by for coffee and cake. They also arrange family events,- check out their website for info.
