Southern Norway: Places to Explore
Notodden
The town of Notodden isn't much more than a small industrial town (albeit with a really great annual blues festival usually held some time in the beginning of August). It's believed that the area was prosperous in the Middle Ages because of the size of the town's stavkirke (stave church).
