After having breakfast, take a short walk to Gjovik Gard, a historic park right in the center of Gjovik. It was an actual farm in the 15th century, and it kept on living under different families until 1950s, when it was given to the municipality.
There is a historic farmhouse behind the garden, and Gjovik Gard continues to be an important cultural center for the city. The plant selection of the garden is actually based on the historic landscape design of the garden, and it was part of the reconstruction plan. Enjoy the beautiful atmosphere and tranquility of the place before hitting the road.
