[Hotel Dalen, Telemarken (i.e, Telemark), Norway] (LOC)

    Living in Telemark, my husband drove me to this hotel once, and we stopped and had coffee from a thermos in our car here. It is still as interesting and a remarkable structure. Next time we'll have to go inside. It is also a very special drive to Dalen. The parking lot is now where the grass is, though is luckily not large.

    Too bad we can't add map locations to Library of Congress photoes. Anyway: This is here: maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geo...

    I stayed there last summer. Fantastic! Almost everything is kept in the old style. Wonderful to find to a top hotel with no TV in the room! Hotel homepage: www.dalenhotel.no/ It was built in 1894, so it was probably brand new in this photo. The travelling photographer obviously was onboard a boat going from Skien up the Telemark Canal ending here in Dalen. From here, they went over the mountain to Hardangerfjorden, and crossed from Voss to Sognefjorden. This was apparently a popular trip among the wealthy at that time. It's mentioned in a book about the history of this hotel. Of course, it is still possible and recommendable to do today.
