Stavanger is the third largest city and third largest metropolitan area in Norway. The city's population rapidly grew in the late 20th century due to its oil industry. Stavanger is known today as the Oil Capital of Norway. Norwegian energy company Equinor, the largest company in the Nordic region, has its headquarters in Stavanger.
Located on the Stavanger Peninsula in southwest Norway, Stavanger counts its official founding year as 1125, the year the Stavanger Cathedral was completed. Stavanger's core is to a large degree 18th- and 19th-century wooden houses that are protected and considered part of the city's cultural heritage. This has caused the town center and inner city to retain a small-town character with an unusually high ratio of detached houses and has contributed significantly to spreading the city's population growth to outlying parts of Greater Stavanger.
Multiple educational institutions for higher education are located in Stavanger. The largest of these is the University of Stavanger.
