As you explore Røros' narrow streets, old courtyards and buildings, you will find an amazing number of charming shops and interesting workshops – this is one of the great joys of Røros.
Do not be surprised if the craftsmen and shopkeepers take a break from their work to chat with you. They may, however, ask as many questions as you do.
The town of Røros is famous for its high concentration of artists and craftsmen: Glass-blowers and wood carvers, furniture makers, silversmiths and blacksmiths, ceramists and painters.
