Kvitfjell Resort, Norway

One of the most unusual cultural centers in Lillehammer is the Norsk Kjoretoyhistorisk Museum. It houses a unique collection of old cars, among which there are 19th-century vehicles. The most valuable exhibits are a steam car released in 1901 and one of the first electric cars in the world assembled back in 1917. Visitors are allowed to get behind the wheel of some vintage cars, as well as try out some vehicles in action. Many tourists visit the museum not only to admire its antique cars but also to make spectacular memorable pictures.
The city has preserved many old religious buildings, and the oldest one is the Lillehammer Church. Built in the 13th century, this stave church is one of the few buildings of this kind in the world, which has somehow managed to remain perfectly preserved after hundreds of years. The wonderful church is still active and striking with its impressive scale. A historic cemetery near the church is now of great cultural value for the city.

Lillehammer has also preserved several picturesque old streets ideal for walking and admiring the old architecture. One of the most beautiful is Storgata Street demonstrating unique 18th-century buildings. Here you can also see beautiful wooden houses that haven't been changed at all over the past 200 years. Today, many historic houses are occupied by popular museums, restaurants, and craft shops, and on Storgata Street, you will see a number of symbolic monuments.
