Kardemomme by: Studevann
Kardemomme by sits beside Lake Studevann in Agder, Norway, where the E18 follows a wooded, rocky inland corridor east of Kristiansand. This section of one of southern Norway’s principal road routes passes the lake and enters a tunnel, illustrating how major transport links are threaded between the coast and Agder’s forested interior. Studevann is edged by conifers and exposed bedrock, characteristic elements of this part of southern Norway, where low ridges alternate with water and woodland. The name Kardemomme by is associated with the storybook town at Kristiansand Zoo and Amusement Park, inspired by Thorbjørn Egner’s children’s book Folk og røvere i Kardemomme by. The road and lake place this spot in the active outskirts of the Kristiansand area rather than its urban centre.

Kardemomme by lies between the Skagerrak coast and the wooded interior of Agder, a setting that places this storybook attraction in southern Norway’s gentler lowlands rather than its fjord country. It brings to life the world of Folk and Robbers of Cardamom Town, Thorbjørn Egner’s Norwegian children’s classic from 1955. Its familiar characters and playful civic rules have made the tale a lasting part of Norwegian family culture.

Agder is best known within Norway for its long Skagerrak coastline. That maritime identity is balanced by a spacious interior of forests, lakes and upland valleys, where the Otra River runs through Setesdal before reaching the coast at Kristiansand. The county’s southern towns, including Kristiansand, Arendal and Grimstad, have long been shaped by seafaring and trade. Further inland, Setesdal maintains distinctive traditions: its traditional music, dance and singing were inscribed on UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2019.

Norway has served as a seafaring link between the North Atlantic and northern Europe since the Viking Age. Its long coastline is cut by fjords, while the Lofoten archipelago rises sharply from the Norwegian Sea and the mountains of Jotunheimen include Galdhøpiggen, Norway’s highest peak. Bergen’s Bryggen, the former Hanseatic wharf, recalls centuries of maritime trade. Farther north, Sámi culture remains an essential part of the country’s identity.
