Norsk Sagbruksmuseum

Spillum, Norway

Norsk Sagbruksmuseum

Tells the story about the national sawmill history. The Norwegian sawmill industry was, around the start of the 19th century, one of Norway’s largest industries with several hundred steam powered sawmills, one of which is the base for this museum. The mill is still occasionally used today to produce

high quality replicas for restoration projects. Also at the museum is the M/B "Hauka", a 1934 ship used for towing logs to the mill in summer and icebreaking in the winter.
