The far northern port of Ålesund might be far from the bright lights of metropolitan Norway, but it’s rich with some of the country’s finest examples of Jugendstil (art nouveau) architecture – a legacy of a huge rebuilding project that took place after a devastating fire in 1904. Set out over a hook-shaped peninsula, the town is now the home base for Norway’s largest cod-fishing fleet, and it’s an attractive, lively town and unsurprisingly has some superb seafood to try.
