Ågårdselva was already in the 17th century used for cutting lumber, and between 1860-1880 the saw mill was operating at full capacity. In 1973 the Dørje-Berg family purchased the old sawmill and restored the remaining buildings. Today these buildings serve as a workshop for the ceramic artist Eva Dørje-Berg and her son Ole Dørje, who is a painter.
Since 1978 Solli Drug has developed into an important hub for art. The art exhibitions that are hosted here are visited by 10 000 to 20 000 people every year, from all over the country.
