Welcome to the home of Bjørnstjerne and Karoline Bjørnson!

The famous author’s home is in Gausdal, about 20 minutes from Lillehammer. During summer you can visit the famous home, the beautiful garden, several exhibitions, the cafeteria, and the museum shop. Our knowledgeable hosts will tell stories about Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson and his life at Aulestad. Every December, the cozy Christmas market takes place.

The museum is now closed for the season, and we look forward to welcoming you back on 22 May, 2026!
