==History== thumb|300px|right|Eidsvollbygningen Winter 2014 The building was first constructed in 1770 with a total floor area of over 2000 square metres. Around 1800 Carsten Anker bought the building. He renovated the manor house and he and his family were living there when the Constitution was signed. Carsten Anker went bankrupt in 1822 and the ownership of the estate was transferred to various British creditors in 1823. A group of private citizens led by Henrik Wergeland organized a fundraiser that allowed them to buy the building with the pavilion and surrounding garden (Eidsvollsparken). After the purchase was finalized in 1851, the group donated the property to the Norwegian State.
