Elverum

Elverum is a city inHedmark with about 15,000 inhabitants.

Understand

[edit]

Elverum was the first town to be destroyed at the beginning ofWorld War II. During the first dramatic days of the German invasion in 1940 the king, the cabinet and members of parliament escaped by moving toHamar, Elverum andTrysil. These key events allowed Norway to maintain a legitimate government in exile during the Nazi occupation. The parliament meeting at Elverum gave the cabinet full authority over the government of Norway as long as the parliament was not able to convene in ordinary session. More than 5 years would pass until the parliament could again convene.
