Henrik Wergeland



Today my class went to Eidsvoll to listen to a lecture about a famous Norwegian writer, Henrik Wergeland. It's 200 years since he was born so it's an anniversary. He was a controversial man when he lived, started drinking, smoking and going to strip clubs at the age of 13. We also visited Eidsvoll verk, an important building of the Norwegian history. In 1814 they made Norway's constitution there, both farmers, businessmen and other top-level officials was there to make the constitution.

It was an ok day, at least better then regular school.
