Amalie Skram Statue represents one of the foremost Scandinavian naturalist writes. Amalie Skram (1846-1903) was born in Bergen but moved to Denmark later on. She was married twice, but due to her determination to attain equal rights and being forced to accept boundless authority of her then husband, she was committed for two years into a mental hospital. Amalie Skram was one of the great minds of her time and her work is still highly appreciated today.
