Naturen (English: The Nature) is a Norwegian popular science magazine, which has been published since 1877 in Bergen, Norway. It is the earliest still running popular science magazine of the country.[1]

History and profile

Naturen was started by the geologist Hans Reusch in Bergen in 1877.[1] It was subtitled Et illustreret Maanedsskrift for popular Naturvidenskab (meaning An illustrated monthly for popular natural sciences).[1] It is connected to the University of Bergen. It has a popular science approach to the natural sciences, including medicine.[2]
