What is it?

Drammen is a municipality and town in Norway in the province of Viken, the former capital of the former province of Buskerud. It is the ninth Norwegian city in order of population with 67,016 inhabitants according to the 2015 census.

Drammen originally consisted of three small seaports: Bragernes (on the northern side of the Drammenselva river) and Strømsø and Tangen (both on the southern side of the river). For trade purposes, small seaports were placed under market towns.

Drammen is one of the largest cities in Norway, located 47 km from the state capital, Oslo. The city center is located at the end of a valley, on both sides of the Drammenselva River, where it meets the Drammen Fjord.

Drammen is also the main importing port for cars and fruit in Norway.
