About Lampeland

Get to know Lampeland

Lampeland is Flesberg's administrative centre and its largest village, with about 650 residents. It lies on the east bank of the Numedalslågen, just over 20 km north of Kongsberg, and the Lyngdalselva river joins the Lågen just north of the centre.

Here you'll find the town hall, the library at Flesbergtunet and Lampeland Hotell, which has been open since 1948. Just outside the centre is Stevningsmogen Leisure Park, Flesberg's millennium site, with floodlit trails, footpaths and disc golf.

Did you know? The name comes from the farm Landbuland, the tenant farmer's land. The astronomer Carl Otto Lampland had grandparents from here, and craters on the Moon and Mars and the asteroid 1767 Lampland are named after him.
