Oslo (dpa) - Four days after the severe landslide in Norway, King Harald V (83) visited the disaster area.
He arrived on Sunday morning with his wife, Queen Sonja (83), and Crown Prince Haakon (47) in the municipality of Gjerdrum around 40 kilometers northeast of Oslo.
The royal family wanted to meet with representatives of the community, emergency services and people who had been brought to safety there during the day.
