    This is the site of the oak tree known as The Old Master (Den Gamle Mester). This tree was made famous by the poetry of poet Jørgen Moe. In 1853 Moe became a resident chaplain in Sigdal and Krødsherad, a position he held for ten years. At Noresund he found inspiration for one of his most famous poems, "The Old Master".
