Rjukan is a small industrial town situated in the Vestfjord Valley in Tinn municipality, Norway. The town developed in the early 20th century around Norsk Hydro's hydroelectric power plant and became an important site for industrial heritage.

Due to its location between steep mountains, Rjukan receives no direct sunlight for six months of the year, leading to the innovative installation of giant mirrors (heliostats) on the mountainside in 2013 to reflect sunlight into the town square.

The town's industrial heritage, centered around the production of hydroelectric power and artificial fertilizer, has earned the Rjukan-Notodden Industrial Heritage Site a place on UNESCO's World Heritage List. This unique combination of industrial history and innovative solutions to geographical challenges makes Rjukan a distinctive destination for cultural tourism.
