Hedmark Museum, Hamar. 1967-2005. The Hedmark Museum, also known as the Storhamar Barn, is one of Sverre Fehn’s best known works, the testing ground for his speculations on human nature and material history, and unique in Norwegian post-war architecture. The design of various parts of the new museum building and the exhibitions followed Sverre Fehn through long periods of his career. It started in 1967, when the archaeological excavations were completed. Fehn was commissioned to do an initial design. The works on site started in 1969, the barn was finished in 1971 and the south wing with the auditorium in 1973. The exhibitions were completed under the new director Ragnar Pedersen, and were completed in 1980. The pavilions in the castle courtyard were completed in 2005.
