The Norwegian port of Tromsø lies between Narvik and Hammerfest, in latitude 69°39' north, on a small island connected to the mainland by a bridge 1,036m/1,100yd long and 43m/140ft high. The town grew up around a church founded in the 13th century and received its municipal charter in 1794. Tromsø is now the largest town in northern Norway, chief town of Troms county and an important fishing port, with a university, an observatory for the study of the aurora borealis and the meteorological station for northern Norway.
