Austrian Embassy in Oslo (2009)

history

The bilateral relations between the Austro-Hungarian monarchy and the Kingdom of Norway were established in 1905, and an honorary consulate was opened in Kristiania ( Oslo ). From 1906 to 1917, the Austro-Hungarian legation in Copenhagen was also accredited in the Kingdom of Norway. From January 1917 until the end of the war in 1918, Count Alexander Hoyos was the first resident Austro-Hungarian ambassador in Kristiania (Oslo). After his retirement in 1919, the post in the First Republic was not filled for reasons of economy. After the Second World War, diplomatic relations between the Republic of Austria and the Kingdom of Norway were resumed in 1954 and shortly thereafter a diplomatic mission was set up in Oslo, which was upgraded to an embassy in 1959; in the same year the Norwegian embassy was opened in Vienna.
