TOP 3 THINGS TO DO IN STAVANGER
Old Stavanger
The old part of the city is one of the must-visit places in Stavanger. This area, also known as Straen, consists of 173 wooden houses located close to Stavanger’s harbour. Most of the houses are painted white, small, charming, and slightly crooked.

Fargegaten
A street in Stavanger that you’ve probably already seen pictures of on social media. The street was previously a somewhat forgotten part of the city that had its renaissance after initiators had the idea to paint the houses in vibrant colours. It has since played a main character role amongst the attractions in Stavanger.

Norwegian Petroleum Museum
The Norwegian Petroleum Museum is one of the most popular museums in Stavanger. The building itself makes it worth a visit. Hard to miss along the harbour promenade, as it is shaped like an oil platform. The museum itself tells the important story of how oil was found and how it is extracted.
