About location

Built around the medieval Lom Stave Church, Lom grew into the service centre of upper Ottadalen in Innlandet. The settlement stands near the meeting of the Bøvra and Otta rivers, in a broad cultivated valley enclosed by steep mountains and roads leading towards Jotunheimen and Breheimen national parks. Lom Stave Church, dating from the 12th century, is among Norway’s largest surviving stave churches; its dragon-head carvings evoke medieval timber-building traditions. The Norwegian Mountain Museum interprets the surrounding highlands, while farms, roadside services and small businesses underline Lom’s role for people travelling through this part of southern Norway.

Region Innlandet

Among the regions of Norway, Innlandet stands out for its broad inland sweep of lakes, forests and mountain valleys. Lake Mjøsa, Norway’s largest lake, forms an important southern focal point, while the Gudbrandsdalen valley follows the Lågen north towards higher country. Lillehammer gives the area an international reference point: it hosted the 1994 Winter Olympics, and its Maihaugen open-air museum presents buildings and everyday traditions from across Norway. Farther north, Rondane National Park protects a high-mountain landscape associated with wild reindeer. This is a region of farms, timber country and transport routes linking Oslo with central Norway.

Country Norway

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.
