Havmannen, or "The Man from the Sea," is a striking granite sculpture located in Mo i Rana, Norway. Crafted by British artist Antony Gormley, this 11-meter tall, 60-ton artwork stands submerged in the Ranfjord, about 15 meters from the shore. It forms part of the Artscape Nordland project, an initiative aimed at bringing contemporary art to the landscapes of Northern Norway.
Installed in 1995, Havmannen has become an iconic symbol of Mo i Rana, reflecting the town's connection to the sea and its industrial heritage. The sculpture's location in the fjord makes it a unique sight, especially when it emerges from the fog or is surrounded by the region's stunning natural scenery. Visitors can view Havmannen from the shoreline or take a closer look by kayak, providing a distinctive experience in this picturesque setting.
