Watch a video from Old Stavanger. The southwestern gateway to the Norwegian fjords, boasts a very picturesque Old Town.

The small wooden houses along narrow streets right by the inner port area were in the 1950’s threatened by urban renewal. That process was stopped and we can now fully appreciate that effort. “Gamle Stavanger” now has the largest surviving wooden house settlement in northern Europe.

After you have watched this video from Old Stavanger, read more here. There are also many articles from Stavanger, in Norwegian, on the sister website Sandalsand Norge.

You will find a number of videos from Norway and other countries on Sandalsand’s YouTube channel. As you can see from the link above, that’s where the original videos are. In addition they all appear in separate articles on this website. Find all videos from Norway.
