The creation of the research institute
Fridtjof Nansen was a famous Norwegian polar explorer, scientist, diplomat, humanist, and Nobel Peace Prize laureate. Nansen lived at Polhøgda from its completion in 1901 until his death in 1930. His grave is in the garden in front of the manor. After his death the Nansen the property was donated to "interests that is close to Nansens life and doing". Scientific research was a natural choice. However, there was to be some time before the foundation Polhøgda was to be realized. In 1948 formal statutes where adopted. In 1983 the name Fridtjof Nansen Institute was first used.
