Art, culture, and music run through the veins of Åmot, singing the sweet, soulful song of Sunnfjord. The walls are adorned with bespoke pieces and unique images, and the converted barn’s performance space is often filled with the heartfelt tones of both local and international artists. Harmonizing with the natural soundtrack of the bubbling stream, chirping birds, and whispering wind, there is always something to delight and inspire ears, eyes, and heart. The organic sounds and sights of Åmot are a work of art in their own right.

Music, particularly opera, has been an important part of Åmot’s story since the very beginning. Åmot is dedicated to supporting and celebrating talented young musicians and regularly hosts local performers from the community for private concerts. Åmot also has access to internationally renowned Norwegian artists who step straight off the word’s top stages and into The Barn’s intimate performance space. Åmot’s repertoire is rich, multifaceted, and diverse and performances may range from folk music played on traditional Norwegian instruments to classical concerts, with soaring sopranos and grand piano solos.

While the music swells in The Barn, visual art aficionados will be delighted by the estate’s impressive range of paintings, sculptures, and photographs. Åmot’s coveted collection would not be out of place in an art museum, and local pieces blend beautifully with international works. Åmot’s passion for art extends far beyond the bounds of the estate, and the region of Sunnfjord is celebrated for its many artists, both past, and present. Sunnfjord boasts a surprisingly large variety of art galleries, open-air museums, and impressive architectural achievements.
