NEWSDECK ANALYSIS
Dumfries, located in the south of Scotland, has a unique historical connection to Norway, which dates back to World War 2. During this period, the town played a significant role in supporting the Norwegian government-in-exile and Norwegian refugees who had fled their homeland. This connection has endured for nearly nine decades, earning Dumfries the distinction of being Norway's "unofficial capital" in the UK.
