Did you know? The castle of Arendelle in Frozen was inspired by the Akershus Fortress in Oslo, Norway? From the traditional folk costumes to the stunning vistas of the fjords, Norway inspired the look and feel of the magical world of Anna and Elsa in Frozen. The castle itself imitates the 800-year-old Akershus Fortress in Oslo, drawing on its brick patterns and ancient stone stairways to create a royal feel in the snowy city. Castle interiors—where Elsa was holed up in her bedroom while Anna sang at the doorway—draw from the 1778 royal residence of Stiftsgården in Trondheim, Norway. The fictional town of Arendelle is itself modeled after UNESCO World Heritage Site Bryggen in Bergen, Norway, the only preserved (and still functioning) business district from the Hanseatic period.
