Esbensengården

Esbensengården was built by Rasmus Gallberg Esbensen in 1848. Merchant Rasmus Gallberg Esbensen (1827-1914) established his trade business in the town, which was growing rapidly at the time. Together with his Danish wife Mathilde Henriette Brammer (1826-1896), they built a large trading facility. In addition to the residential house, there was a quay facility with 4 large warehouses and a shop on the south side. West of the house, a reindeer grazing garden was established, and in the north, a garden with an accompanying gazebo. If you walk one street up, you will come to Tuomainengården. This is a farm that is actively used by the people of Vadsø even today.
