Torg definition

Torg means main square or plaza. “Torgallmenningen” was named so after a major fire in 1702 and recreated in its current form after the fire in 1916. Its main function from the start in 1582 was protection against fire. Between 1660 and 1702 it was known as “Vågsallmenningen” (the Bay commons). Today it is the main public area in Bergen, see https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torgallmenningen. Apparently the practice of creating a “commons” (allmenning) to protect against fire was much older. Before 1702 Bergen had major fires in 1198, 1248, 1413, and 1476. This led to the creation of several commons cutting acros the town from sea to mountain (Lorange 1990, 253).
