    Hiking

    When visiting Kristiansand, a nice walk through the old part of Posebyen with its historic, white-painted houses should not be missed.

    The Posebyen district is over 300 years old and Northern Europe's longest settlement of wooden houses. Fortunately, the houses remained intact after the fire in 1892. The district is considered unique today because of its size, its uniqueness and its many different buildings.

    Here you can find Kristiansand's original white wooden houses, which have occasionally been burnt down in previous years.

    The name Poseby is thought to derive from the French "reposer" meaning "to rest".
    In fact, the private houses of the soldiers were built here, who were supposed to draw new strength for upcoming missions at home.
