LYNGøR

'Lyngør' is a small town on a group of small islands off the south east coast of Norway, in the municipality of Tvedestrand, in the county of Aust-Agder.
Previously a popular home for sea-captains, the town is accessible only by boat, has no cars, and is known for its scenic harbor and charming wooden houses. It is recognized as one of the best-preserved communities in Europe. Most of the buildings are now summer homes, but there are about 80 permanent, year-round residents. A hugely popular destination in the summer months, it has in later years struggled to maintain a stable permanent population.
The community has a sailmaking factory, a few restaurants that are open during the tourist season, and a famous general store.
The sound that goes through Lyngør is also famous for a dramatic sea battle in the Napoleonic War, in which the British Navy effectively put an end to the last of Dano-Norwegian naval forces. The wreck of the Danish frigate Najaden was discovered in the sound in 1957.
