Avaldsnes Pilgrim Center
For the 2022 summer season: Avaldsnes Pilgrimage Center receives visitors in the former storage house near St. Olav’s Church from June 06, to June 24, and from July 25 to August 26. Welcome inside for a chat among pilgrims! Avaldsnes Pilgrimage Center can be found during the summer season in the former storage house right beside Nordvegen History Center and Avaldsnes Church, Kong Augvalds veg, Avaldsnes. For most pilgrims, the centre will be a place where it is natural to get in touch with the locals for information, advice, leads, and guidance, before they continue their journey along the Coastal Pilgrimage Path. In case the old storage house is closed, you will also get your stamp and information at Nordvegen History Centre and St. Olav’s Church at Avaldsnes.
