Tjøme
The seaman`s wife
If you travel to the World’s End on Tjøme, you will find the seaman’s wife.
The Sculpture «Sjømannshustruen» designed by Nina Nesje from Tenvik in Nøtterøy was raised in 2004.
Many a sailor perished at sea in the age of sailing ships. The seaman's wife is a memorial to the women who longingly waited for them at home.
