Going to ski this weekend?

"Palmehelga" – The Palm weekend, after Palm Sunday – in 1956 at #Bergen #train station. It is the start of Easter holiday, and people are stacking up their skis and ski poles to take the train to Voss or Geilo (or cabins somewhere around there) for the Easter week.

Musikkpaviljongen – the music gazebo – in the city park in the early 30s. Quite similar to today's view from Hotel Norge.

The gazebo was bought as a gift by businessman, consul and politician Fredrik Georg Gade sr., inspired by #Moorish #architecture.

Sauron hidden in plain sight in #Bergen? No, it is just Slettebakken Church.

Opened in 1970, it is a concrete construction with a fan-shaped copper roof, and a glass slit that lets daylight in to the main room. The "AD ASTRA" plan by architect Tore Sveram was apparently met with skepticism by the municipality, but loved by the congregation, and still stands as a striking landmark by Tveitevannet in Bergen.
