What To Expect

We start at Storneskaia (the cruise ship pier) and walk from there across the Hellebroa bridge to Aspøya—perhaps Norway's most densely populated island. Here, you will hear the story of the city fire, the Art Nouveau style, and some of the city's merchants. And maybe you will be introduced to some scents that were very common in Ålesund a century ago.

Aalesund Church
