Kunstsilo
An art museum on Norway's south coast converted from a 1930s grain silo, opened in 2024, housing one of Northern Europe's largest private collections of Norwegian modernism.
Kunstsilo sits at the end of the wharf on the harbor peninsula. It retains the concrete cylinders of the original grain silo, and the interior has been opened up into a towering atrium. The collection centers on modern Nordic art from the Tangen Collection and incorporates works from the former Sørlandets Kunstmuseum, with special exhibitions held year-round. The rooftop restaurant and terrace overlook the bay and islands. The Kilden Theatre is right next door and can be visited together. The museum is often closed on Mondays, and opening hours and ticket prices are listed on the official website.
