What To Expect

Combine the highlights of Bergen’s historic neighbourhood with an entrance to the Bryggens Museum on this easy walking tour that will keep you (mostly) out of the rain and cold.

The first part of the walk will take you around the Bergenhus Fortress. Here you will see the medieval buildings Håkons Hall and the Rosenkrantz tower while learning about 1,000 years of Bergen history.

Next is Bryggen, Bergen’s UNESCO site. This has been a trading harbour since Bergen was founded in 1070 and was the mainstay of the German Hanseatic League for 400 years.

The last part will take you inside the Bryggens Museum, with an included entrance and visit. Your local guide will introduce you to the museum, explain the archaeological excavations, and show you some of the museum’s highlights. The tour ends in the museum, giving you as much time as you like to explore independently.
