Roald Amundsen, the famous polar explorer, spent his last days in Tromsø where he left for his last mission in 1928. In fact it was a rescue mission to save his collegue Umberto Nobile who crashed with a hot air ballon north of Spitzberg. Amundsen and the whole rescue team nevar came back, neither did the Nobile crew they tried to save. There are a few statues and a polar museum in Tromsø to remind the story of this glorious explorer...
