Kristiansund - the capital of stockfish

While it becomes problematic to buy stockfish in other cities in Norway, you can buy it in Kristiansund even in the supermarket. Unfortunately, it needs to be refrigerated, otherwise I would have brought one home. Stockfish is the secret of the rise of the city of Kristiansund. The stockfish was imported from Lofoten and shipped further from here, earning some merchants good money.

Otherwise, Kristiansund had the Varden to offer, a small tower on a hill. From up there, you had a beautiful view of the surrounding mountains and the city that was destroyed by German bombs.

The Duden defines stockfish as 'air-dried cod or haddock', perhaps you know the huge racks on the Lofoten...
