Villa Paus

Villa Paus

Villa Paus is a listed villa at Bygdøy in Oslo, with the address Christian Benneches vei 6. It was built in 1907 for the steel industrialist Ole Paus, who was a first cousin of Henrik Ibsen. It combines Neo-Baroque and Art Nouveau influences. During the Second World War, the villa was used as the summer residence of Josef Terboven, the German Civilian Administrator of Norway. It was sold to Petter Stordalen, one of Norway's richest men, in 1994.[1]
