Geocache Description:


Stein Eventyrskole.

An easy cache along a mainroad with room for Travel Bugs.


Stein school is a museum of the first residential schoolbuilding of this area. Before 1852 the kids were gathered on the farms now and then to learn reading (mostly the holy bible) , writing and calculations. The oldest building (1852) contains a classroom and a small room where the teacher lived.

The new schoolbuilding was in in use from 1912 to 1972 and is known as 'Eventyrskolen' (eng.: Fairy-tale school) because of the paintings everywhere of famous norwegian artists around 1930'ies.

In the summertime the buildings are available on thursdays and sunday. See the link for opening hours: Stein skole

Parking beetween the schoolhouses. 

Stein skole er en opplevelse for barn og voksne. I 1930-årene ble denne vanlige skolebygningen utsmykket av en rekke kjente norske kunstnere. Reidar Aulie, Dagfin Werenskiold, Henrik Sørensen, Christian Krogh og mange flere bidro til å omskape skolehuset til en fantasifull og fargestrålende ramme rundt undervisningen. Henrik Wergelands tanker om folkeopplysning var en sterk inspirasjon for skolestyrer Erling Elverhøy og Ingeborg Refling Hagen, drivkreftene bak arbeidet. Skolen var i bruk fra 1912 til 1972 og er kjent som Eventyrskolen. Ved siden av Stein skole ligger Rode stua (gammelskolen) fra 1852.
