Gamle Stavanger is the old city of Stavanger. It consists of smallish wooden houses painted white in the inner harbour of Stavanger, Norway. The houses were built in the last century. Some years ago when the houses became run down the city wanted to demolish and rebuild the area. It was the city architect, Einer Heden, who championed the cause to save the old houses. He was successful. Today it is a beautiful area of Stavanger with rows of restored white houses, and a desirable area to live. There are a few intetesting shops. We shoped in a little jewelry shop. There is small park at one end almost behind the Maritimes museum. In that park there is a statue of Einer Heden and a scipture of a top hat.

Visited Stavanger in April while on the Iona. What a welcome to seeing Norway! Stavanger is absolutely beautiful and historical. It is certainly somewhere I would love to have spent more time exploring. Old town was just brilliant, it is easy to forget that people live there and I found myself having to not stare into gardens/windows, as each home was so very unique and had a story to it. Steep steps getting up, but worth it if you're physically able to, as you won't want to miss the streets/homes.

Lot of nice restaurants in the area, lot of nice quiet walking areas too, sites. Plenty of shops with a mix of souvenirs and normal merchandise. Ship was late departing so we got to stick around for dinner, and had some great food. But most indoor seating was reservation only, and booked up. Still great time, and take a fjord cruise, but wait until off the cruise ship to buy your ticket, if you can, save some money.

Stavanger recebeu vários prêmios pela preservação da Velha Stavanger. É uma área residencial popular e o bairro possui diversas galerias e lojas de artesanato. Aqui você encontrará o Museu Marítimo de Stavanger e o IDDIS, o Museu Norueguês da Impressão e o Museu Norueguês de Conservas. Gamle Stavanger foi designada pela UNESCO como uma das cidades da Noruega digna de preservação no Ano do Patrimônio Arquitetônico de 1975. Antigamente, era comum levar a casa junto quando as pessoas se mudavam de um lugar para outro. Isto se aplica a várias casas em Old Stavanger. As casas são de madeira, o que significa que foram fáceis de desmontar e levar consigo quando se mudaram. Naquela época, eram os trabalhadores que viviam na Velha Stavanger, trabalhando nas muitas fábricas de arenque e conservas ou no mar. Famílias de origens mais pobres cresceram aqui e muitas vezes viviam com muitas pessoas sob o mesmo teto. Várias casas têm arcos no telhado construídos para ampliar a área habitacional e dar lugar a vários inquilinos. Esses arcos são chamados de arcos de Stavanger. Hoje a história é completamente diferente; aqueles que possuem casas em Gamle Stavanger não pertencem aos mais pobres da sociedade, pelo contrário.

A really pretty and old part of the city with these white houses and a lot of pretty plants growing there. It's close to the port where the huge passenger ships are landing, so there are days where a ship lies at the port a huge amount of people there. So I recommend visiting it when there is no ship there, to see the real beauty of this part of the town.
