On September 28, 2019, Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit attended the unveiling of the monument "Iron Roses" outside Oslo Cathedral. The monument was erected to commemorate the terrorist attacks of July 22, 2011. The art project "Iron Roses" was initiated by Tobbe Malm and Tone Mørk Karlsrud after the terrorist attacks that happened in Oslo and on Utøya on July 22, 2011. |
What a lovely memorial to remember the victims of July 22nd 2011. Sadly to say.these hateful act's of violence,brings people together,to mourn and share kindness to others. Do like the CP couple at this event.

DeleteThis is such a deep wound in my country... I would like to inform that the roses in the middle were made by survivors and those who lost their loved ones. The roses on the outside are protecting the roses in the middle <3
