Overlooked by seven mountains, Bergen is the gateway
to Norway's magnificent fjord region. Founded in 1070 the city is steeped in history. Hometown of the famous Norwegian composer, Edvard Grieg.
Bergen is also a centre for culture, with a concert hall, theatres and several art galleries. Every spring the city hosts an international music festival, the largest annual cultural event in Norway.
Visit the old Hanseatic painted warehouses of the town’s Bryggen district, or take a step back in time on a stroll through the steep and narrow alleyways of old Bergen. Enjoy the hustle and bustle of the Fish Market, visit the Aquarium, or take a trip on the Funicular Railway to Mount Fløyen where, on a clear day, there are magnificent views of the city and its surroundings.
