  • (Kven: Vuorea / Northern Sami: Várggát) OR is a town and the administrative centre of Vardø Municipality in Troms og Finnmark county, Norway. The town is located on the island of Vardøya in the Barents Sea, just off the coast of the large Varanger Peninsula. The 1.19-square-kilometre (290-acre) town has a population (2017) of 1,875 which gives the town a population density of 1,576 inhabitants per square kilometre (4,080/sq mi). Vardø is the easternmost town in Norway (and in all the Nordic countries), located at 31°E, which is east of Saint Petersburg, Kyiv, and Istanbul. The eastern part of Finnmark is in the same time zone as the rest of the country, but it is more than an hour at odds with daylight hours. The largest industry in the town is fishing and fish processing. There is a good port in Vardø, and another port in nearby Svartnes, on the mainland. The town is connected to the mainland by the undersea Vardø Tunnel which is part of European route E75. Vardø Airport, Svartnes is located at the other end of the tunnel on the mainland. (en)
  • Vardø is een plaats in de Noorse gemeente Vardø, provincie Troms og Finnmark. Vardø telt 2012 inwoners (2007) en heeft een oppervlakte van 1,27 km². De stad is gedeeltelijk gelegen op het eiland Vardøya. De naam van de stad komt van de gelijknamige vesting waarvan de naam een verbastering zou zijn van Wardhuys, want met deze Nederlandse naam staat Vardø vermeld op de kaart van Jan Huygen van Linschoten uit 1594.

  • Vardø (kvenska: Vuorea, nordsamiska: Várggát) är den östligast belägna tätorten i Norge och centralort i Vardø kommun i Finnmark fylke. Bosättningen i Vardø går tillbaka till Vardøhus fästning, som uppfördes av kung Håkon Magnusson på 1300-talet. Dess åttakantade fästningsvallar byggdes mellan 1734 och 1738. Fästningen ligger nu under den norska marinen, som har en symbolisk närvaro där. År 1769 gjorde den österrikiska jesuitprästen Maximilian Hell framgångsrika astronomiska observationer av venuspassagen från ett observatorium, som han lät bygga upp i fästningen. Vardø fick stadsrättigheter 1789. Tillsammans med Hammerfest är Vardø en av de äldsta städerna i Finnmark. Staden var centrum för en livlig gränshandel med Ryssland under 1800-talet, den så kallade pomorhandeln. Vardø museum grundades 1894 som ett naturhistoriskt museum för att underlätta vetenskaplig forskning inom fiske, och är det äldsta museet i Finnmark. (sv)
