Kaupanger is a historic village located in Sogndal municipality, Western Norway, situated along the northern shore of the Sognefjord - Norway's longest and deepest fjord. The settlement has roots dating back to the Viking Age and medieval period, evidenced by the presence of the well-preserved Kaupanger Stave Church, one of Norway's largest stave churches built around 1140.
The name 'Kaupanger' derives from Old Norse, meaning 'merchant's harbor' or 'trading place', reflecting its historical importance as a trading center along the fjord. Today, the village maintains its cultural significance while serving as a gateway for exploring the natural beauty of the Sognefjord region, with the Norwegian Museum of Cultural History maintaining several historical buildings in the area.
