Røros is a historic mining town in central Norway, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1980. The town developed around copper mining operations that began in the 17th century and continued for over 300 years until 1977.

The well-preserved wooden buildings from the 17th and 18th centuries create a unique cultural landscape that reflects its mining heritage. The town's architecture is characterized by distinctive black-timber houses and a notable church, known as the Røros Church or "Bergstadens Ziir" (The Mining Town's Ornament), completed in 1784.

Today, Røros is known for its cultural heritage, traditional crafts, and local food culture. The town maintains its historical atmosphere while functioning as a modern community, hosting various cultural events throughout the year, including the annual Rørosmartnan winter market. Its museums and cultural institutions play a vital role in preserving and presenting the town's rich mining and cultural history.
