Ålesund 3.3 Print

Ålesund is a small town on the north west coast of Norway, not fare from where I live. It is well known as an art deco town or the Jugend Town. In January 1904 most of the town burned down in a tragic fire spreading rapidly in the strong storm, leaving 10 000 people homeless in the middle of winter. Only one elderly woman living next door to the fire station perished in the fire. Ålesund got a lot of help from the whole country, but the following summer, Wilhelm the 2nd Emperor of Germany, sailed up and offered to rebuild the whole town! 3 years later the job was done with the best of German craftsmanship and materials. And there was no quick fix architect work either, every single house is different.
