Historien om en øy

This story of Utøya ends at 2 p.m. on 22 July 2011. It begins in 1933, when the Norwegian Labour Party bought the island from Conservative politician Jens Bratlie. Over the years, the island has been a place of happiness, recreation, friendship, love and political ideas, and for many it has held a very special significance.
