The city centre lies on the eastern slope and shore of the island. This means that when you head north, the Troms\u00f8 Sound will be on your right, and when you head south, it will be on your left. \u201cEast\u201d and \u201cwest\u201d are rarely used in Troms\u00f8\u2019s downtown \u2013 you\u2019ll always be going uphill or downhill.

Skansen is the oldest house in Troms\u00f8, built around 1790 to house the customs station. The Polar Museum was constructed around 1830 as its warehouse. The Polar Museum is a must-see, and the Skansen house looks particularly picturesque. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The latter is situated atop the remnants of a fortress from the Middle Ages. Back when the sea was a metre higher, the turf rampart would have been directly on the Troms\u00f8 Sound. The cannons were placed there during the Napoleonic Wars. Be sure not to walk on the ramparts, as they have been worn down by too many visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-4\">\n\t\t<ul><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Verftsgata-Tromso-eldre-hus-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-size=\"1350x2400\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">01<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Verftsgata-Tromso-eldre-hus-Knut-Hansvold-1152x2048.jpg\" alt=\"Verftsgata 3 is an old workers&#039; house with a beautiful portal \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Verftsgata-Tromso-eldre-hus-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-caption=\"Verftsgata 3 is an old workers&#039; house with a beautiful portal \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Gamle-Tromso-krattskog-mellom-Skansen-og-Verftsgata-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-size=\"1350x2400\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">02<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Gamle-Tromso-krattskog-mellom-Skansen-og-Verftsgata-Knut-Hansvold-768x1365.jpg\" alt=\"Weeds and houses in rust red and ochre between Skansen and Verftsgata, north in Troms\u00f8&#039;s city centre \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Gamle-Tromso-krattskog-mellom-Skansen-og-Verftsgata-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-caption=\"Weeds and houses in rust red and ochre between Skansen and Verftsgata, north in Troms\u00f8&#039;s city centre \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Verftsgata-regnvaer-i-juni-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-size=\"1350x2400\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">03<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Verftsgata-regnvaer-i-juni-Knut-Hansvold-768x1365.jpg\" alt=\"Glimpse between the oldest houses in Verftsgata \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Verftsgata-regnvaer-i-juni-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-caption=\"Glimpse between the oldest houses in Verftsgata \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Verftsgata-6-detalj-Tromso-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-size=\"1350x2400\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">04<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Verftsgata-6-detalj-Tromso-Knut-Hansvold-768x1365.jpg\" alt=\"Ocher, red and white \u2013 classic colours from old Troms\u00f8 \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Verftsgata-6-detalj-Tromso-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-caption=\"Ocher, red and white \u2013 classic colours from old Troms\u00f8 \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><\/ul><div class=\"vnn-gallery-figcaptions\"><figcaption>01: Verftsgata 3 is an old workers&#039; house with a beautiful portal \u00a9 Knut Hansvold<\/figcaption><figcaption>02: Weeds and houses in rust red and ochre between Skansen and Verftsgata, north in Troms\u00f8&#039;s city centre \u00a9 Knut Hansvold<\/figcaption><figcaption>03: Glimpse between the oldest houses in Verftsgata \u00a9 Knut Hansvold<\/figcaption><figcaption>04: Ocher, red and white \u2013 classic colours from old Troms\u00f8 \u00a9 Knut Hansvold<\/figcaption><\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Verftsgata: Old and Colourful<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Walk a few metres towards the bridge, with the dominant Scandic Hotel on your right, and you will find the small street Verftsgata \u2013 &#8220;Shipyard Street&#8221;.

This is a fully preserved compound, with the main building painted in a distinguished grey and the outbuildings in the traditional, more affordable Norwegian barn. The garden is also preserved, with old perennials gracing the old-fashioned wooden fences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The outbuildings housed livestock, first and foremost the cows that supplied the little city with milk. In summer, the cows would graze in fields around the island of Troms\u00f8, with the family&#8217;s summer house situated in the middle.  Families would move up in June and stay until August or September, with summers filled with both relaxation and haymaking. <\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-4\">\n\t\t<ul><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Nordre-Tollbugate-nederste-del-i-speilhalke-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-size=\"1350x2400\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">01<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Nordre-Tollbugate-nederste-del-i-speilhalke-Knut-Hansvold-1152x2048.jpg\" alt=\"A glowing sunrise in February reflects in the ice in Nordre Tollbugate \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Nordre-Tollbugate-nederste-del-i-speilhalke-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-caption=\"A glowing sunrise in February reflects in the ice in Nordre Tollbugate \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Nordre-Tollbugate-nysno-ovenfor-Skippergata-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-size=\"1800x2400\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">02<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Nordre-Tollbugate-nysno-ovenfor-Skippergata-Knut-Hansvold-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Snow-covered whitebeam and blue house in Nordre Tollbugate.

Some of the houses were relocated from the closed-down mining town of Salangsverket, but city architect Peder Arnet Amundsen brought it all together.

Between 1920 and 1925, a row of nine houses were built on this field, most of them by the same builder. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They combine the Swiss chalet style with Art Nouveau, in various combinations. Look for Art Nouveau-style windows, balconies, verandas, and dormers \u2013 all well-kept and surrounded by mature trees and lawns. Engenstykket is also known as <em>Plysjbyen <\/em>&#8211; liberally translated to the &#8220;Velvet district&#8221;, because it&#8217;s considered a nice address.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-4\">\n\t\t<ul><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/engenstykket-vintersol-Tromso-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-size=\"2400x1603\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">01<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/engenstykket-vintersol-Tromso-Knut-Hansvold-2048x1368.jpg\" alt=\"Engenstykket with beautiful villas from around 1920 \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/engenstykket-vintersol-Tromso-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-caption=\"Engenstykket with beautiful villas from around 1920 \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Engenstykket-trehus-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-size=\"1350x2400\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">02<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Engenstykket-trehus-Knut-Hansvold-768x1365.jpg\" alt=\"Swiss chalet style details on a house at Engenstykket, south of Troms\u00f8 city centre \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Engenstykket-trehus-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-caption=\"Swiss chalet style details on a house at Engenstykket, south of Troms\u00f8 city centre \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Engenstykket-trevilla-jugenddetaljer-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-size=\"1350x2400\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">03<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Engenstykket-trevilla-jugenddetaljer-Knut-Hansvold-768x1365.jpg\" alt=\"South wall with Art Nouveau details at Engenstykket \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Engenstykket-trevilla-jugenddetaljer-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-caption=\"South wall with Art Nouveau details at Engenstykket \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Engenstykket-Tromso-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-size=\"1350x2400\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">04<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Engenstykket-Tromso-Knut-Hansvold-768x1365.jpg\" alt=\"Beautiful Art Nouveau windows on a house at Engenstykket \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Engenstykket-Tromso-Knut-Hansvold.jpg\" data-caption=\"Beautiful Art Nouveau windows on a house at Engenstykket \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><\/ul><div class=\"vnn-gallery-figcaptions\"><figcaption>01: Engenstykket with beautiful villas from around 1920 \u00a9 Knut Hansvold<\/figcaption><figcaption>02: Swiss chalet style details on a house at Engenstykket, south of Troms\u00f8 city centre \u00a9 Knut Hansvold<\/figcaption><figcaption>03: South wall with Art Nouveau details at Engenstykket \u00a9 Knut Hansvold<\/figcaption><figcaption>04: Beautiful Art Nouveau windows on a house at Engenstykket \u00a9 Knut Hansvold<\/figcaption><\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Nurses\u2019 Home is Simplistic Modernism<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A short downhill walk, with the city centre always in view to your right, leads to a collection of houses with a distinct 1950s character.

This street was once a field that was converted into a residential area. As this development occurred around 1900, the houses are closely packed together, and you\u2019ll occasionally catch a glimpse into a backyard. Pedestrianised, this is a street where you\u2019ll need to watch out for a stray football, as children play in the street. You are now descending down to the hustle and bustle of the Storgata main street, may we suggest a coffee somewhere? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>This article was written with the help of two books by Sveinulf Hegstad: his master&#8217;s thesis in history, <\/em>Troms\u00f8 bysamfunn &#8211; sosial lagdeling, boliger og boforhold 1900-1920<em>, and his booklet<\/em> Fotefar mot nord &#8211; byvandringer i Troms\u00f8<em>.
