Tønsberg, commonly regarded as Norway's oldest city, is located in the eastern part of the country in Vestfold county. Founded during the Viking Age, this historic coastal town has played a significant role in Norwegian history since the 9th century. The city was an important trading center during medieval times and served as a royal seat.

Today, Tønsberg combines its rich cultural heritage with modern urban life. The city's skyline is dominated by Slottsfjellet (Castle Rock), where the ruins of Norway's largest medieval fortress can be found. This site, along with the Vestfold Museum and various archaeological findings, provides insights into the region's Viking and medieval past. The waterfront area, with its characteristic wooden buildings and boat life, reflects the city's continuous maritime connection.
