About
In the bustling center of Bergen, a striking statue catches the eye, honoring the legendary playwright and director, Henrik Ibsen. Situated right in front of the National Theatre, the very place Ibsen first brought his creative visions to life, this statue pays tribute to a master whose plays have become perennial favorites on stages worldwide. This unique representation of Ibsen captivates with its wild eyes of a 'mad genius', cleverly depicted using his iconic glasses. With an average Google rating of 4.2 and its child-friendly surroundings, it's an ideal stop for families exploring central Bergen. The statue's location, just a short walk from Ole Bulls Plass, makes it a convenient and enriching addition to any cultural itinerary.
