1. One of the most striking modern buildings in the city — a dramatic glass and steel structure on the waterfront that reflects the fjord and sky. Home to the Stavanger Symphony Orchestra. Admired from the outside as part of the walk; interior access depends on event schedules

2. IDDIS Canning Museum (Norwegian Canning Museum) Stavanger was once the sardine capital of the world — at its peak, over 50 canneries operated in this city. The Canning Museum tells that story through preserved machinery, original tins, and the smell of smoked sprats still in the air. Exterior included; entry to the museum can be arranged at additional cost

   Passerar

3. Gamle Stavanger & Einar Hedéns Plass The best-preserved collection of wooden houses in Northern Europe — over 170 white-painted homes dating back to the 18th century. Einar Hedéns Plass sits at the heart of this neighbourhood, a quiet square framed by traditional architecture and local life. A natural place to pause, take photos, and hear the stories behind the streets that have barely changed in 200 years

4. Stavanger Maritime Museum (Stavanger Sjøfartsmuseum) Housed in two restored 19th-century merchant buildings on the waterfront, this museum tells the story of Stavanger’s seafaring past — from fishing and trading vessels to the sailors who shaped the city. One of the oldest and most authentic museums in the region. Exterior included on the walk; entry to the museum can be arranged at additional cost.

5. Stavanger Cathedral (Stavanger Domkirke) “Norway’s oldest cathedral, dating to around 1125 and still an active place of worship. A remarkable example of Romanesque and Gothic architecture in the heart of the city. Your guide shares the history of a building that has stood through almost 900 years of Norwegian life

   Passerar

6. Fargegaten (Øvre Holmegate) Stavanger’s most colourful street — a row of brightly painted wooden shopfronts created through a community art project in the early 2000s. Each building was painted a different colour, turning an ordinary backstreet into one of the most photographed spots in Norway. A favourite stop for photos and a great place to browse independent coffee shops and boutiques

About Stavanger

Stavanger is a harbour city in south-west Norway, with a wooden old town, a medieval cathedral, its oil history and the fjords of Rogaland beyond.

Stavanger stands on a peninsula in Rogaland, south-west Norway, with a harbour lined with warehouses, cafés and wooden buildings. Gamle Stavanger, the old town, has rows of white wooden houses on cobbled lanes, and the cathedral, begun in the 12th century, is among the oldest in Norway. Oil discoveries in the North Sea from the 1960s made Stavanger the country's oil capital, a story told in the Norwegian Petroleum Museum on the waterfront.
