Another view of Alesund harbour and the mountain overlooking the town. Another to view on black.

Some of the cobbled streets in Alesund. Of particular interest are the buildings with Art nouveau style and dated 1905. A major fire in 1904 destroyed much of the town and many buildings were rebuilt the following year in the current fashion, which I think looks great.

I could well imagine that this harbourside table and chairs in Alesund would be a great place for an alfresco coffee on the right day.

Our ship stopped long enough in Alesund to allow a stroll around the town, admiring the interesting buildings and the harbour. HFF and best wishes for the weekend, everyone.

The town of Alesund was largely destroyed by a fire in 1904. It was promptly rebuilt, largely in Art Nouveau style, which makes it rather unique - and what a setting!
