Kristiansand
The city Kristiansand in the county of Vest-Agder, Norway,
has 73,977 inhabitants as of January 1, 2002.
It was founded by King Christian the fourth in 1641.
The Dyreparken Zoo just east of the city has a wide selection of animals in, for the most part, natural habitats. This includes animals such as Wolves and the Lynx. Due to the allocation of areas the combination of zoo and recreational park turns out surprisingly well.
The Norwegian Crown Princess Mette-Marit, was born and raised in Kristiansand.
