Jazzgutten

On the lower market place, with the fjord and the mountains as a backdrop, is the bronze statue Jazzgutten - a young jazz player with his saxophone. Jazzgutten, along with the popular Moldejazz festival, lends substance to Molde's reputation as Norway's jazz capital. The sculpture by Nina Due, was a gift from the people to commemorate the town's 250th anniversary in 1992.
