Solspeilet — The Norwegian Stonehenge — stands on the Klungholmen islet among the skerries outside Jørpeland.

Created in stainless steel by Jørpeland native Stian Heimlund Skjæveland the work of art was completed in 2016. Solspeilet takes the form of an eight-metre-tall obelisk and is decorated with historical symbols, runes and ornaments, some of them from the Oseberg Viking ship, and is circled by twelve standing stones.

Solspeilet can be seen from Jørpelandsholmen and National Scenic Routes. Klungholmen has a visitors' pier making it possible to dock your boat, kayak or similar to go ashore and study the details of the artwork.
