Hammerfest Hammerfest No Data

Description


Vying with Honningsvåg for the title of the worlds most Northerly town (Hammerfest has slightly more credentials with a much larger population, and a hospital). It's home to a small collection of museums and churches, all rebuilt following their destruction at the end of World War II. Today Hammerfest is at the centre of Norway's Liquid Natural Gas industry with a major pipeline from the fields in the North sea making landfall in the town.
