⭐ Hey #MutualAid community,

🧩 I have autism and struggle with social anxiety, so I’m reaching out today for a bit of mutual aid, if you’re able, please give this post a boost.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 It’s a small ask, but I’m working on accepting my social anxiety, and your support would mean a lot and could help me find new friends nearby to overcome my social anxiety, heal, and feel more comfortable socializing.

🇳🇴 I’m based in Bergen, Norway, with interests in Anarchism, particularly anarcho-syndicalism, as well as free software and Linux.

💙 Thank you so much!

"The Graf Zeppelin is a ship with a soul. You have only to fly in it to know that it's a living, vibrant, sensitive and magnificent thing."
– British journalist Lady Grace Drummond-Hay

Graf Zeppelin did a world tour in 1929, flying over parts of the world until then unseen. In 1930 it did an even more daring flight, when it swooped by #Bergen.

After the Hindenburg accident in 1937, Graf Zeppelin was quickly put out of commission, and turned into a museum ship. This post was inspired by an article in NRK today, where some of these images were featured.

First non-photography! Swipe for coloured version.

Hieronymus Scholeus drew a view of #Bergen in 1581, creating the world's oldest (known) depiction of the city, and the first of a Norwegian city at all.

There was uncertainty whether the artist had ever actually been in Bergen, due to odd inconsistencies such as the palisade fence around the city which has never been there, but letters from the client to the king states the artist actually came here. The working theory is that #Scholeus drew it from a number of sketches after having left the city, and added a few details in post.

Collected with a large number of other copper engravings of cities, this image was in the German-published series "Civitates Orbis Terrarum" (Cities of the world).

Going to ski this weekend?

"Palmehelga" – The Palm weekend, after Palm Sunday – in 1956 at #Bergen #train station. It is the start of Easter holiday, and people are stacking up their skis and ski poles to take the train to Voss or Geilo (or cabins somewhere around there) for the Easter week.

Musikkpaviljongen – the music gazebo – in the city park in the early 30s. Quite similar to today's view from Hotel Norge.

The gazebo was bought as a gift by businessman, consul and politician Fredrik Georg Gade sr., inspired by #Moorish #architecture.

#Bergen #TrainStation, some time in the 30s.

Opened in 1913, the station is – still – the terminus of the Oslo-Bergen train line. It was built on parts of an old graveyard, and as late as 2016, two skulls were found when maintenance was being done on the tracks.

Norwegians _loves_ it when foreigners says something nice about us! So of course a great video saying that we're doing something right gets an article in one of the two biggest local newspapers in the relevant city! :D

And if you haven't seen the video from @notjustbikes yet, well prepare yourself to get your mind blown by a tunnel in sunny, warm, basically tropical city of Bergen, Norway

Hello, hello, hello – I moustache you a question!

Rasmus Løvik was a police officer in #Bergen from 1876-1911. Was considered at a point for a transfer to somewhere else in Norway, which was met with protests from people in the Nøstet area where he patrolled.

Viimeisin Not Just Bikes -video on jälleen kerran osoitus siitä, että kun rakennat ympäristöä ihmisille, saat ihmisiä.

Bergen on varsin tyypillinen eurooppalainen kaupunki, joka monella tapaa tuhottiin 60-luvun autohuumassa. Kaupunki on kuitenkin ottanut hienoja askeleita oikeaan suuntaan ja korjannut vuosikymmenten takaisia virheitä.

Upea pyöräily- ja jalankulkutunneli on vain yksi osa kaupungin kehittymistä (ja videota). En ole koskaan käynyt Bergenissä, mutta ihan jo pelkästään tämän videon perusteella päätin, että joskus siellä on käytävä. Vaikka 60-luvun autoilusekopäisyyden arvet näkyvät yhä, Bergen vaikuttaa varsin viihtyisältä paikalta, joka on kehittymässä hienoon suuntaan!

The street corner of Svaneapoteket (The Swan Pharmacy) in #Bergen in the 50s.

Founded in 1595, it was the oldest #pharmacy in #Norway until its closing in 2024. The original building burned down in the city fire of 1916, but was rebuilt. The swan was a symbol of intelligence and purity and was widely used symbols by medieval apothecaries in Finland and Denmark
