Mole of the Ground
Silent departure
Røros Mining Town, established in 1646, is a world cultural heritage. It is built entirely of wood, and interlinked with a cultural landscape that shows in an outstanding and almost complete manner how mining operations, transportation, and the way of life had to be adapted to the requirements of the natural environment – the mountain plains, the cold climate, the remote location without roads and with marginal growth conditions for forests and agriculture. This is one of the preserved old houses which reflect those days.
