Kirkenes is a town in northeastern Norway, located in the Sør-Varanger municipality of Troms og Finnmark county. Situated just a few kilometers from the Russian and Finnish borders, this Arctic town has played a significant role in Norwegian history, particularly during World War II.

Kirkenes has a rich cultural heritage influenced by Norwegian, Sami, and Russian traditions, reflecting its position at the crossroads of these cultures. The town's industrial heritage is closely tied to iron ore mining, which was a major economic activity in the region for many decades.
