McDonald’s restaurant in Kristiansand, Norway

  1. It looks odd, but it’s not actually an old building. It was built (as a bank, I believe) in 1897. McDonald’s moved in in 1992.

  2. Feels like a waste of a nice building. On the other hand its nice that a classic building like that has such an accessible hangout spot in it.

  3. I live here, and it’s a real shame. The main enterance picture here isnt used.
    The enterance to McDonalds is off to the right side of the picture in a very generic McD style

  4. Not pictured: the actual entrance in the modern square building to the right cropped from this picture.

  5. Ate there alongside the members of Rage Against the Machine in 1997. They played on the local Quart music festival. Great concert.

  6. I used to live in Kristiansand, sadly that is not the entrance, it’s actually on the right side of it and it’s very generic looking

  7. McD: hey, we want to put up our huge obnoxious branding up everywhere and wreck all your beautiful old buildings.

    Norway: No.

  8. In brazil we have something like that… it’s call McDonald’s 1000. It was designed like Classical architecture in honor to 1000 restaurants builded. Btw, they have McDonald’s souvenirs like bags. I always hated it, but it’s a tourism spot. There is chandeliers in shape of hamburgers on the ceiling

  9. The McDonalds that was there in the 90s and 2000s was actually kinda nice. The huge doors were an extra entrance, and they had stairs in the open space in the middle leading to sitting areas on the second floor that followed the surrounding walls on each side. I may be biased and just nostalgic here though
