Norwegian term or phrase: tun - bygdetun / gårdstun / hovedtun / museumstun
I'm working on some tourism documents for the Moss region and derivatives of the word "tun" keep on appearing. My client has tried to assist in a suitable translation, but we can't seem to find exactly the right word. I found the word "grange" in English, but it doesn't accurately fit each instance.

Some examples of context are below:

"Bygdetunet, som er et gammelt jernaldergravfelt, ligger like ved. Det gjør også Rygge Museum med flere gamle gårdstun."

"Museumstunet ligger midt i bygda, ved bygdetunet og Rygges flotte middelalderkirke. Museet består av et hovedtun, der hovedbygningen med egen utstillingen ligger."

Thanks in advance!
