The Norwegian town of Brumunddal sits on the edge of the Brumunda River, just 85 miles north of Oslo and a million miles away from the hustle and bustle of a big city. TripAdvisor users have recommended just two things to do in Brumunddal: See a church built in 1250, and go dog-sledding in the snow.
As a town of fewer than 10,000, Brumunddal’s biggest claim to fame for years was that it was home to the woman who created Grandiosa frozen pizzas, a time-honored Norwegian snack. But today, it is known for something even more grandiose: The world’s tallest timber structure.
