Harald Grytten (born 5 December 1938 in Ålesund, Norway) is a Norwegian philologist and historian.

Education

[edit]

Grytten has a Master's degree in Nordic History from the University of Bergen from 1973 with the main thesis An examination of the spoken language on Midøya...[1]

Professional life

[edit]

From 1973 to 1993, Grytten was director[2] of the Ålesund's Museum.[3] He is a known expert[4] on Ålesund's and Sunnmøre’s history, and has published several books about the city of Åalesund, its people, and the surrounding region. Through his work as a museum curator, was key in the rediscovery of Aalesund’s Jugendstil[5] (Art Nouveau) architecture and art that characterizes the city’s center after it was rebuilt in the wake of the Alesund fire of 1904.

Grytten is a well-known communicator with a hands-on approach to history. For many years, he led an urban public history movement in which he taught history in public - atop of a wooden stool[6] - and informally told people about the town's history. His commitment to these city walks and the sharing local history gave Harald Grytten the status of a well-known cultural personality. In 2004, Grytten received the Communication Award in Møre og Romsdal. The prize is awarded by the Norwegian Communications Association's of Møre og Romsdal.[7] His weekly articles on the local Newspaper “Nytt i uka”, continue his tradition of directly telling about the city’s History from “the Top of the Wooden Stool”.
