A certain stubbornness pervades Stavanger. Twice the city has burned down to the ground, first in 1633 and then again in 1684. The city was almost given up, but nevertheless, as a Phoenix it rose from the ashes. The city founded its first prosperity on the fishing industry and the sailing ship fleet, and with the oil strikes in the North Sea, the city became the centre of the oil industry.

Being an oil metropolis, Stavanger is the home of large, modern office buildings and production platforms. At the same time, much is done to preserve the old part of the city centre; here you will imagine yourself in past times when strolling between the pleasant, small wooden houses. This is also where you find the exclusive fashion and antiques shops.

When visiting Stavanger, you can also bring home with you a very exceptional nature experience, if you set out on the 2 hour walk to Preikestolen: a plateau of 25 square metres, situated 604 m above sea-level.
