Where can I look at the VR representations of the city of the past? Found it: oslohavn1798

Quite a few omissions and misrepresentations in this rather “norwegian nationalistic” angle on history.

They were Germans , they were all in with the nazi

Excellent film. Most impressive. I hope to see many more from Northern History.

Most excellent films. I will see them all.

Neat Documentary. My Grandparents on my Dad' side immigrated here to the U.S. --from Tromso, Norway 1905 -- my maiden name is (Lilleeng).

Bortsett fra det...jævla fornøyd. - Husker fra 40 år siden turer rundt i Oslo med Pål Hougen..men seffærn ikke alt.

Det du forteller meg er det jeg ønsker mene å ha forstått. At den handlende eliten tok med seg frihetlig kunnskap...fra 1776 og 1789 og selvfølgelig før det, og så var vi så lykkelig fattet at en frihetlig fra BEARN var så klar i nøtta (kanskje flaks) at vi slapp 1666Danmark - Å som jeg elsker å dusteeksemplifisere historiske greier. - En kjær mystisk hobby. Hilsen tiende latesomandregraden, og om den skal forståes opp eller ned...ikke spør meg.

Marvelous, enjoyed and gained a little insight into the "World-view" in those days, we have'nt changed that much as Humans we still like a little Glory even though we won't admit it. Team-work made a dream-work for a while.

Crazy that seeing Grauballemanden numerous times as a kid was the reason for my disappointment at seeing the Egyptian mummies at the British Museum. Legit one of those 'never meet your heroes' moments for a kid that was crazy about Ancient Egypt. Turned out we got some cool stuff just about everywhere, at some point..

Lovely to see fellow Norwegians in America having such love for Gamlelandet.

Hmm. Danes today tend to say to Norwegians: "You belonged to us!". It is of course historically incorrect, ignorant, stupid and offensive towards Norwegians. The double monarchy of Denmark/Norway was instigated by the marriage between Queen Margrethe of Denmark the first, and king Haakon the sixth of Norway and Sweden. And they remained in unity when Sweden droppede out of the Kalmar union. The king of Denmark, Frederick the VI sacrificed Norway to Sweden as a mean to get peace for Denmark at the end of the Napoleonic wars. Norway then made it's own constitution, fought a war with Sweden without any help from Denmark, and even elected a Danish royal to become the king of Norway. But in vain. A term for peace with the Swedes was that Norway would accept a Swedish king. Denmark betrayed Norway in those years. It was a shame. And Denmark betrayed Norway again in 1940 letting Nazi Germany using a willing danish country as a platform to atack and occupie Norway. But you know what? Norwegians are forgiving and still love Danes and Denmark. 👍 It"s probably for the cheap alcohol.😅

Underrated video right here,. You can really see the effort you put into this project, it's a pro level documentary - thanks for bringing the stave churches to us

My grandfather in Sandefjord buried the family radio in the garden. A minor act of resistance, but he wasn't going to surrender it to the Germans. At war's end, he dug it up.

Tell the real truth of how Norway was on b the losing end of a 500 union with Denmark and Sweden.

It is impressive and also touching that Americans of norwegian decent hold on to Norwegian traditions. Like Matt Groening who made a Simpsons episode about Norway years ago, and all these nice American-norwegians celebrating their Norwegian roots. I wish you all a happy new 2024. May God bless you all. With love from Norway 🇧🇻🇺🇲

Very interesting! Love from Sweden!

i love the Norwegian accent of saying stuff with a D at the front. like "right dere" my Son talks like a little Norwegian... its through DNA! I did the same thing as a kid

my Grandma came from Norway. she spoke the language on the phone but never taught my Mom the language. All farmers. Founded the First Lutheran Church in Plano. Still, we knew the food!

Thank you, I really like your approach to making these videos. To the point, and entertaining as well.

Hårre heite, for ei kveite! 12:57 I nearly died laughing, clearly one of his ancestors was from Southern Sunnmøre 😀

Bravo! Very informative and informative. Thank from an old Dane and I apologize for ruling your country for so many years.

I'm from the town where the little norway building now stands. I remember when they brought it back and assembled it. So that was pretty cool to see.

This made me wanna visit Minnesota or the mid-west in general tbh😅

norwegian woman looks like the stereotypical school lunch lady

My ancestors were hired by the king and moved from the Netherlands (Gelderland) to Copenhagen along with 3 other families of builders to help defend the Danish against the Swedish kingdom. They specialised in building star fortresses and after finishing the older part of the first permanent ramparts/citadel (Kastellet) gained nobility and knighthood and were awarded a lectureship award in complicated architecture at the King's University. We are still in Denmark, around 600 members of the former Wan der Borchs and the Bartholin branch of the family's.

Julio cesar made the bridge And took it Till here he said

Very good video. Dont know why i havent seen this before today.

My grandfather was the one who started the project to bring it home

Sure come on over and grab some land cuz we've driven off the native peoples....

i know in some parts of norway (i grew up with this tradition) christmas lasts for 20 days. in my famoly, the custom is that on the 20th day of christmas you take down your christmas tree. thsi moght be related to the upside-down drinking horn of the 13th of january on the runic calendar!

Im a phil. But i enjoy Nørwegian history.

Truly amazing. I left a comment in your stave church video. I love stave churches. When I visited the Open Air Musuem in Oslo a tourist in our guided vidit tour decided to lit a cigarette next to the stave church. My instictive reaction was to shout STOP before musuem.staff reacted. I cannot begin to imagine losing that building. Please keep up the videos. I am also intetested in learning more about other Norwegian buildings, for example, about the intricate walls painted inside some churches and houses some centuries ago. I am already planning my next trip to Norway. Warm regards from Australia, Andy

Where was this video before my first visit to Norway??? During my first visit to Norway I went to the Open Air Musuem in Oslo, as I previously visited the museums in Denmark and Sweden. Nothing prepared me for the beauty and magnificence of the stave church in the museum as I turned a tight corner in the path... Absolutely undescribable joy at seeing it. I didnt know what it was but I just knew its beautiful presence was going to be in my mind forever. I can still see it today when I close my eyes. It took my breath away!! The history behind it is so interesting and it captured my imagination to discover more stave churches in my next trip to Norway soon. I was so lucky to have a guide who spoke English and took a long time to passionately explained so much about this truly spectacular building and its history. I spent a long time in that building and I found it hard to walk away eventually. You are incredibly lucky to have this piece of history preserved. Warm regards from Australoa, Andy PS more videos please!!❤

Thank you and please continue 🙏🏻

You don’t want a complete ban on it, just make it more difficult than buying a pack of crisps to poison your people! A day delivery wait will save millions

Great video!! Thanks for sharing. I am from India and currently visiting Olso with my family. We were amazed by the city. There is something enigmatic about it. Would love to explore the past remains of the 19th century Oslo. Let us know id you have any ideas

what a beautiful video, i salute the quality and care you give to your content to make it look entirely professional. i honestly thought this was a bigger channel but im surprised to see the video has less than 4k views. it deserves a million. i found abt your channel with this and i'm definitely going to check out your other content, i've always been interested with norwegian culture. i hope i can visit your country one day to experience the beauty of it but in the meantime im happt your channel exists to educate me on its history and to show me the landscapes i so much dream to see one day.

What a fantastic video- thank you! I am interested in Scandinavian history and visit Scandinavia often. Warm regards from Australia, Andy

I really enjoy your videos and your talks explaining the history of your beautiful country . . . thank you

Great video to watch before a trip to Oslo!

The tobacco farmer is fluent

Amazing that it has been there for centuries and no-one knew what they were walking past .

The old buildings are beautiful. So please to know you are preserving them.

As a New Zealander we also drink beer around Christmas. the only difference between you and us; we drink cold beer on the beach because it is summer time in the 'Down Under" countries in the South Pacific. Cheers to you all. Love your choice of music.
