Joop in Norway #6

Here I go through the streets of old town Flekkefjord.
They call this district 'Hollenderbyen' or Dutch Town.
Narrow streets, old timber buildings and small fisherman's houses from the 1600s and 1700s.
The Dutch humans first came here to ship granite back to Holland for the dikes, roads and harbours.
Around 1750 Flekkejord became the largest export harbour for herring on the South coast of Norway.
Many streets and buildings have Dutch names.
Hey, I felt right at home here!
