Nyborg ( Norwegian Nyborg handelssted ) is a place in the municipality of Nesseby in Troms og Finnmark in Norway . The trading center was founded by Bergitte and Andras Brodtkorb and was built around 1850. He had a large house built by the builder Sveve, who also built Nesseby Church and Vadsø Town Hall .

In 1865 Nyborg was taken over by their daughter Jensine Fredrikke Johanne Brodtkorb and her husband Otto Andreas Pleym. Pleym did a great deal of trade in the area and abroad. He sold brandy and had big sales on the Varangermarkedet ( German  Varangermarkt ) on Karlebotn , a side fjord of the Varangerfjord . At the 1875 census, there were 13 people in Nyborg.

Around 1880 Nyborg was again run by a generation of brothers Fredrik From Pleym and Otto Andreas Pleym jr. taken over under the company name Brødrene Pleym .

Nyborg was once a thing place and known for its great hospitality. Nils A. Ytreberg says that guests from Vardø , Vadsø , Nesseby, Tana and Polmak, now part of Tana, came to large parties. The guests came by sleigh or pulka to celebrate Christmas and Easter in Nyborg. Then there were parties for days with games, dancing, comedy performances and more and so Nyborg became a little flateby in Finnmark. In Flateby in Enebakk in Akershus , the Collett family had a hunting lodge and in the late 18th and early 19th centuries there were frequent celebrations during the autumn and Christmas hunting season.
