Bergen børs

Bergen børs is a commercial building in Bergen featuring neo-Renaissance architecture with detailed stonework and symmetrical design from the 1860s. The structure at Vågsallmenningen 1 combines historical elegance with modern function, now operating as a hotel with refined interior spaces.

The building was constructed in 1862 by architect Franz Wilhelm Schiertz, embodying Bergen's industrial development during that era. Between 1890 and 1893, it underwent major remodeling under Lars Solberg's direction, shaping its current appearance.

The building reflects Bergen's economic importance in the 19th century, when the city established itself as a major trading center. This role continues to shape how locals view their city's identity as a port center.

The building now functions as a hotel near Bryggen with direct access to public transportation and airport connections. Visitors will find it centrally located and easy to reach from different parts of the city.

The Frescohallen inside the building preserves its original architectural elements while serving as a modern restaurant and event venue. This space blends its old trading heritage with contemporary uses that visitors can experience today.
