Our History

Tollboden is located in the heart of Kragerø – a historic building that has been a natural gathering point by the sea for generations. A place shaped by time, people, and the proximity to the ocean.

Where Past Meets Present

Tollboden has always played a prominent role in Kragerø's townscape. With its location right by the waterfront, the building has been a place where people gathered – for trade, travel, and community.

Today, Tollboden continues its legacy with respect for its history. Here, authenticity is combined with modernity, and tradition with new experiences – all within tranquil and thoughtfully designed surroundings.

A Building with Soul

The name Tollboden carries the history of a time when the sea was the main route in and out of town. The building has witnessed life, movement, and encounters between people – and this heritage still resonates within its walls.

When you visit Tollboden today, we want you to experience precisely this: the tranquility, the proximity to the sea, and the feeling of being in a place with genuine character.
