Sunset over Bingen lenser (booms)
The Bingen Booms (Norwegian: Bingen lenser) is a system of log booms on the Glomma River below Sørumsand in the municipality of Sørum, Norway. The first boom system at the site may have already been built in the 14th century, and was certainly in place by the 16th century. At the booms, timber was sorted and bundled before it was driven down the Glomma River and distributed to sawmills on the shore of Lake Øyeren. (WIKIPEDIA)
