Villa Paus

Villa Paus (Pausvillaen) is a listed villa in Oslo, Norway. It is located at Christian Benneches vei 6 in Bygdøy. [1]

It was built in 1907 for the iron and steel industrialist Ole Paus, founder of Ole Paus Eftf. It combines Neo-Baroque and Art Nouveau influences. During the German occupation of Norway during World War II, the villa was used as the summer residence of Josef Terboven, the German Civilian Administrator of Norway. In 1994, it was sold to Petter Stordalen, one of Norway's richest men.[2]
