Horten a nice and small city

by tomerik - last update: Mar 26, 2005

Horten is a small norwegian city of approx. 22000 inhabitants. Located by the Oslo-fjord 1 hour from Norways capital, Oslo.

Most famous for the Aasgaardstrand district home to the famous norwegian painter Edvard Munch.

Horten has a nice harbour for those interested in boats. There are also several beaches in the summer. The city center is small with a short distance to everything you need.
I'm not originially from Horten so I do not have a lot of information about the city.
There are a couple of restaurants and some bars and nightclubs. The best thing about Horten is the short distance to other cities.

Aasgaardstrand

Very nice village outside Horten. Famous for Edvard Munch who stayed there most of his life. This place is really worth visiting.
