The harbour and warehouses at Hammerfest, Norway.

The harbour at Hammerfest, Norway, looking north-west from the slopes of the north end of the Sadlen. A number of motor fishing vessels and other small craft are in the harbour. The warehouses fronting the harbour are all timber-built and some are owned by Feddersen & Nissen. The northern mountains of Klavo are in the background. The town of Hammerfest was totally destroyed by German forces in early 1945 and none of the buildings in this photograph survived.
