Petter Dass Museum in Norway is not just an ordinary museum. It’s a project, which include a landscape plan (park), parking facilities and a service building. All of these are creep into an old rock surface.

The museum is awesome, because the building is integrated with the landscape. The transparent walls of the museum ground floor emphasize this relationship between the landscape and the building. At both ends there’re large glass surfaces, offering views towards a church and the blue sky.

The museum itself represents the present and links Petter Dass’s achievements to our time, 300 years after his death.

Petter Dass is one of Norways most important and beloved National poets. He was also the Vicar at Alstahaug church from 1689 until his death in 1707.
