Narrow streets and wooden houses

by Rusket - last update: May 27, 2005

The railway station

Station
This is not narrow, and the building is not wooden! That is due to the fact that this used to be Kragerø Railway Station. The local railway line between Neslandsvatn and Kragerø was abandoned 31.12.1988. But the station building is still there, nowadays used as a tourist information center and a bus station.

More about this in my railway travelogue.
City Sqare

City Square

A place to relax after strolling along the narrow streets of the inner city, with a bank, a pharmacy, a couple of resraurants / cafes and some shops.

View from the square

Nort-west corner of the square, with a view of one of the broader streets.

A very narrow street

Fire hydrant

Most needed in this city of wooden buildings. To the right you can see one of the few non-wooden ones.

Cars in the street

Cars!

Ooops, they allow cars to drive through these narrow street. Be careful when walking, there are no sidewalks.

 Cute, indeed :-) Oh I love it that so many houses are painted so colorful. And the police station and the jail - hihi, really cozy :-)

 Rusket - Kragero seems very nice - like a small fishing village - is it far from where you live? Cassie
