Statue of the week: number 55

Back to Universitetsplassen this time and to the companion of Anton M Schweigaard.  This is Peter Andreas Munch (1810 – 1863) – no, it’s not that Munch this is a different one!  Peter Andreas Munch was a school friend of Anton Schweigaard, but is known for his work on Norwegian medieval history. He was also one of the first non-catholics to gain access to the Vatican’s archives.
