In 2016, Kragerø celebrated its 350th Anniversary of the city’s founding, and 33 signs were placed in various places of interest. Eeach with a story to tell about the nearby area, building etc. The information is in both English and Norwegian.

Many buildings and places look a lot like it did over a hundred years ago whereas some areas have changed a lot.
