Havnelageret

[1] Havnelageret was one of the results of the huge development of ship transport during and after the First World War.

[2] The construction of Havnelageret was complicated because the building had to be built on bedrock as a result of its large size.

The style of the building has been categorized as Nordic Neo-Baroque with classical elements and details of Art Nouveau.

As a result, there has also been less demand for storage space, and current needs are mostly met outside the quay area itself.

[3] In late 2003, Entra Eiendom bought Langkaia 1 from Steen & Strøm ASA and had it thoroughly renovated in the following years.
