Mandal

Mandal lies along the Mandalselva River where it meets the Skagerrak coast, with low wooded shores, islands and sandy beaches defining this southern part of Norway. Once a centre for timber exports and shipbuilding, the town retains a compact riverside centre of white-painted wooden houses. Sjøsanden, a broad beach backed by dunes and pine woodland, forms part of the Furulunden coastal recreation area. Mandal Church, consecrated in 1821, is Norway’s largest wooden church, while painter Adolph Tidemand was born here in 1814.
