Hvalfangstmonumentet

Surrounded by graceful plumes of water, this handsome sculpture by Knut Steen has become a symbol of Sandefjord. The monument itself rotates continuously, which is quite impressive.

Hvalfangstmuseet

The only museum of its kind in Europe, this gem specializes in the history of whaling and whales. The main attraction----one that the kids will find fascinating---is a life-size model of a blue whale. The building itself has a long history, dating back to 1917.
