Jul på Bogstad
Visitors can wander independently through the festively decorated manor house to view candlelit rooms and holiday decorations. In the courtyard, market stalls offer handmade crafts, traditional goods, wreaths, and hot food around open fire pits with live musical performances. Family activities include meeting animals in the barn, listening to classic fairy tales, taking horse and carriage rides, and crafting in the workshop.
