Strandgaten, 1909. The place to see and be seen.
Still an important shopping street, Strandgaten (Beach Street) in the #Bergen city centre has been called that since 1857, and has been a central spot for trade and goods since the 1200s.
In the background, you see "Muren" (The Wall), which wasn't actually a city wall, but a private house with a well under the archway. The umbrella and raingear business there now, is actually there in this image as well – Aksdal i Muren has been providing rain protection for locals since 1883.
