The burial mounds of Fevang
Archaeologists in the 19th century were struck by how many burial mounds and other past memories they encountered. The explanation is that the "main road" went here, and the soil was suitable for the agriculture at that time. Farmers at Fevang found many objects in graves that they had dug in to or removed in the 1800s and early 1900s. Those who were historically interested sent them to the Museum (Oldsaksamlingen).
Archaeologist Nicolay Nicolaysen went here and dug out many of the burial mounds. It was concluded that at Fevang there were just about all the kinds of graves one could imagine from the time before Christianity. Nicolaysen found out that there have been buried people here for more than 1000 years – from the time around Christ's birth until the Christian cemeteries were established. In addition, the rich grave discoveries showed that many of the buried had been powerful men and women.
Among other objects, a gold jewel called "Berlokk" was found in a women's grave, along with two gold beads, two blue glass beads, a hairpin and two clips of bronze, ceramic and burned bones. The tomb is from the period 0-400 A.D. (Old Iron Age).

Arnadal Church
Arnadal church was designed by Johannes Henrik Nissen, and has 185 seats.
The church was consecrated on 26 April 1882, by Bishop Essendrop.
In the 1950s, the church was restored. At the same time, the name of the church was also changed. It used to be called Arendal, but in order not to be confused with the town in Southern Norway, they changed this in 1952. The church was then rededicated in the autumn of 1956.
The altarpiece in the church shows Jesus walking with two disciples. The picture was painted by Otto Valstad, and is a copy of a picture made by Anton Dorph. In 1980, the previous organ in the church was replaced, when the previous one was damaged. The organ that is in the church today was built in Gothenburg, by Hammarberg.
Along the walls inside the church hang knotted carpets, designed by Hans Gerhard Sørensen.
There is both parking and a toilet. This also applies to HC.

Both the pulpit and the altarpiece in the church are magnificent pieces from approx. 1650. On the altarpiece you can see the crucifixion of Jesus.
In 2008, a new organ was inaugurated in the church, built in the Netherlands.
Note: The church has neither a car park nor a toilet.
Kodal Church
Kodal Church is a protected long church of stone and timber in the Romanesque style.
After years of decay, in 1691 the church got a new nave in timber as a result of the establishment of the Countship of Jarlsberg. 100 years later, the church inherited the altarpiece from 1634 when Sandar church was demolished, which during modernization in 1854 ended up in the artist's home of the painter Otto Valsta, today the Asker museum.
Today's altarpiece is from 1781.
The church received its first organ in 1893, while new clocks from Nauen Klokkestøperi were installed in 1919.
The church has 225 seats.
Art for All in the World
The project was developed in times that saw significant changes in the political landscape and Europe was facing an immense migrant crisis. The project wanted to shine light on these issues and as a consequence convey a message that all kinds of people are welcome to our city. Sandefjord has some strong players working with social entrepreneurship and Café Vintage was heavily involved in the project. The café offers training programs mainly for women and their families joined in as volunteers. Naper’n, a youth club at the city centre came along too as volunteers. It all played out very nicely as people from all over the world be it artists or refugees together painted ten murals in a two week period in July 2017. The project kicked off on July 3rd with the Norwegian prime minister, Erna Solberg, opening the event. It all become a massive joint collaboration between businesses and volunteers and the following deserves a big thank you!

Art for All in the World was founded by Sharon and Peter Claesson. Art for All is a non-profit organisation working with communities across the globe to harness the power of art as a force for positive change. In 1995, Peter and Sharon's passion for their work led them to Quito, Ecuador for an education and awareness project for 6,000 street children living in the city. They led adventure tours to national parks outside the city. One day during the project, Peter and Sharon learned that there were children living in the prisons of Quito. They decided to visit the prisons and asked permission for these children to join their adventure trips as well. The prisons agreed, and after witnessing the joy of the children during the trips, Peter and Sharon recognized the need to create a more positive environment for these kids, one that would instill a sense of possibility and hope.
The project then evolved further with the creation of a series of murals on the prison walls and throughout Quito in areas in need of regeneration. This proved to be a transformative experience, not only for Sharon and Peter, but also for those involved with the project. Many of the prisoners went on to exhibit and sell work and secure jobs following their release. This defining moment in Quito was the launch pad for Sharon and Peter who realized the need for public art and the joy that comes from creating with a community. They have gone on to run projects across the globe under the banner of Art for All ever since. Their largest project to date is a project where they did 70 murals in 70 countries simultaneously. The project in Sandefjord is the first in Northern Europe.
An amazing artist Victor Ash from the Art for All family was unfortunately not able to come in 2017. However, in June 2018 he came and painted a mural where he interpreted the challenges we are facing with climate change. You can find the mural at Stockfeldsgate 6-8. In August 2018 a local artist Linn Horntvedt will do a piece in Stockfeldsgate too.
