Eidsvoll

Eidsvoll is a municipality in the county of Akershus, Norway. In addition to being a bedroom community to Oslo, it also has agriculture and forestry industries. Main population and commercial centers are Sundet and Rholt. Eidsvoll was the site where the Norwegian Constitution was signed on May 17 1814. The building (Eidsvollbygningen) in which the meetings were held is today a famous museum. In 1854, Eidsvoll became the end point for the first train line in Norway from Oslo. This became the transit point for travel with the steamship Skibladner to Hamar, Gjvik, and Lillehammer.
