For almost 250 years ago Hadeland Glass factory was established at the farm named Mo, just in the southern end of the beautiful Randsfjorden. No other company in Norway has been as long in continuous operation. Today, most companies most often are out of business before the first ten years. So in a one-quarter of one thousand years Hadeland Glassverk has without delay provided what the customers want. To begin with, they only produced things of glass of just practical use.

Hadeland Glassverk is the third most visited tourist attraction in Norway, about 1/2 million visitors each year, which is ahead of such popular places as the Aquarium and Fløibanen in Bergen, Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim, National Gallery and the Kon-Tiki in Oslo.
After one year, Målfrid Gausel's website "every dolls's dream website" has approximately 100 000 visits per year, from fifty different countries worldwide. So what was more natural than to let art meet art at Hadeland glass plant. We took Kirsten with us on a visit to the glassblowers. We hope you will like the pictures (below here).
