Honorary citizen

During the celebration, the queen was made an honorary citizen of Lillehammer. The title was awarded by Mayor Ingunn Trosholmen (Labor Party) in Lillehammer Township.

“As a greeting, a thank you from us in this small town by the waterfall, where the Queen’s childhood home is now located, I, as Mayor, have the utmost pleasure and honor to appoint Her Majesty the Queen as honorary citizen of Lillehammer, “said Trosholmen.

-Thank you for the kind words and this great honor. I am deeply moved. I am here as an honorary citizen of Lillehammer and as the holder of the key to my beloved childhood home, said the queen.

She noted that Lillehammer means a lot to her, both because the city is an important cultural city and a place where outdoor activities can be done in picturesque surroundings.

– Ancient traditions, art and culture are highlighted and preserved. I am more proud to be an honorary citizen of this particular city, which has so much to give, she said.

I have my own key

At the same time, the representative of Maihaugen, Torger Korpberget, also gave the queen the key to the childhood home Tuengen Allé 1b. The modern villa is finally ready in Maihaugen, having been relocated from Vinderen in Oslo.

The queen lived in the house from when she was born in 1937 until she married King Harald and moved into the palace in 1968. In the 1960s, they met several times secretly in the house’s basement living room.

He said it has been a strange experience to move the childhood home to a completely different setting.

– He has been given a view of the house, something he has never had, but that the house itself will enjoy – and I, too, said about the new home of the house.

“The only thing missing is the smell of my mother’s pots of food,” said the queen, who said that the process of moving the house “has become absolutely fabulous.”

The crown prince and the princess in the hospital

On Friday morning, King Harald (83) was admitted to Rikshospitalet. Later in the morning, the Palace stated that the admission was due to heavy breathing.

– The king is now under investigation. COVID-19 is already excluded, he said in the update.

While the queen was in Lillehammer, Crown Prince Haakon arrived in Rikshospitalet around 4 pm Friday, reports TV 2. He works as a regent while his father is on sick leave.

Shortly after the arrival of the crown prince, Princess Märtha Louise also arrived at the hospital.

Rikshospitalet always treats members of the royal family. The king himself does not have a GP, but he does have a GP at the hospital.

On Thursday, the king was aboard the Royal Ship where it marked the end of the season.
