"The Boardroom" at Funken Lodge
In the early days of Longyearbyen, the Boardroom at Funken Lodge was where crucial choices were made—about coal, the community, and survival in the far north.
Today, its walls still echo with that spirit of resolve, under the watchful eyes of the former directors of the mining company. It’s a space for focused minds and meaningful conversations, grounded in the legacy of those who came before.
Once the meeting room for the directors and executives of the Store Norske Spitsbergen Kulkompani, this room has witnessed pivotal decisions that shaped life in Longyearbyen for many years. The room has remained relatively unchanged, retaining much of its original character. With the portraits of the former and current managing directors of Store Noske, a subtle reminder of the times when mining operations ruled Longyearbyen.
Today, the boardroom provides the ideal setting for intimate dinners or significant meetings, offering a unique atmosphere that blends historical storytelling and traditions with modern comfort.
