The sculpture park was designed by the Norwegian artist Magne Furuholmen and is the largest collection of ceramic works in Scandinavia today. Her Majesty the Queen officially opened the sculpture park when it was ready in June 2016.
There are 40 individual ceramic elements, all made of high-burnt faience. Two huge jars of 6 meters weighing 9 tons each form the entrance and end of the park. On the long sides there are 9 different columns of between 2 and 4 meters which are placed in two elongated water basins, where water and steam will create different atmospheric moods depending on the season.
"The goal was to create a park that could be experienced in different ways at different times, with water in the summer and steam in the winter as an atmospheric element, in addition to lighting"
