Stavanger Noruega Escandinavia

Stavanger es una de las ciudades más importantes de Noruega. Cuenta con una población de unos 125,000 habitantes, y se sitúa al sur de Berben, a unos 200 kilómetros. Es una ciudad de la costa suroeste del país, portuaria, donde la pesca y la explotación petrolífera, junto con los astilleros navales, conforman la base de su economía.

Stavanger es, tras Oslo, Bergen y Trondheim, la cuarta ciudad más poblada de Noruega, y la cuarta más importante. Sus fiordos son uno de sus atractivos más interesantes, así como su clima, suave durante todo el año, con abundantes lluvias, pero sin temperaturas extremas bajo cero como en otros lugares del país.

Esta ciudad se fundó allá por el Siglo XI, . y ya en el XII era un centro administrativo y comercial de la costa oeste escandinava. Su catedral construida en esta época es una de sus reliquias culturales más interesantes. La pesca del arenque es una de sus principales actividades económicas también, junto con la explotación petrolífera.

Culturalmente también es una ciudad interesante, no en vano, en 2008 fue elegida como capital europea de la cultura, con un puerto que es de los más importantes de la costa, y con más de media docenas de museos, entre los que destacan el Museo Marítimo, el Museo Tele Noruego, el Museo del Petróleo o el Museo del Arte entre los más destacados. Otro de sus atractivos es el Preikestolen, un macizo rocoso en el Fiordo de Lyse que nos ofrece increíbles vistas.

Stavanger es un bonito lugar para disfrutar del turismo rural, ya que aquí encontrará interesantes alojamientos rurales.

Stavanger, the capital of western Norway is a charming, typical southern Norwegian city, and an exciting mix of old and new. Its proximity to the North Sea oil fields has made it the fast growing and wealthy oil capital of Norway. But its narrow lanes and white timber houses are all in well preserved traditional style, from classic style to funkis. It is a modern city with a wide variety of shops, cafes and restaurants. Contrast characterises this city, the people who live there, the surrounding landscape - and the weather! All this makes Stavanger a pleasant and very charming city.
Stavanger is Norway's fourth largest city with 113 000 inhabitants (metro-area 200 500 inhabitants). A city charter was obtained in 1125 when construction of the beautiful medieval cathedral began, but the area has been populated for over 10,000 years.

Stavanger is also the centre of higher education in Rogaland county. It has its own university, The University of Stavanger, a number of cultural institutions including international, British and French schools because of the great influx of foreigners connected to the oil industry and to the "Emigration Centre for Genealogical Studies and Contact Between Norway and North America". The Canning Museum is the only one of its kind in the world and testifies to what has been an important industry for Stavanger.
Among the many other attractions are the theatre and the symphonic orchestra that has its home in the beautifully situated Kulturhuset. By boat you can reach the lovely islands of Kvitsøy, where the fjord meets the open sea. If you travel into Lysefjord, you will come to the strange and magnificent mount formation called Pulpit Rock. Utstein monastery outside of Stavanger is Norway's best preserved. Magnus Lagabøter built it in the year 1200. Originally a royal residence, it was later a Danish style manor. Concerts are held in the chapel, and during the summer months you may be fortunate to hear famous musicians perform here.
