Welcome to Telemark Heritage.
Telemark County Council took the initiative to establish Telemark H1eritage on the web in 2002. The vision of "Telemark Heritage" is through use of the internet to establish and maintain contact with the descendants of Telemark emigrants.
"Telemark Heritage" contains some news, some events, well above 2.000 pictures, a numbers of interesting links, more spesific information about the municipalities in Telemark, etc. You are also welcome to send us comments, and information about links that we should include.
Skien Municipality is responsible for "Telemark Heritage". Hermod. H. Monsen (hhmonsen@online.no) is responsible for the content of the web-pages.
