Overview
Solstrand begravelsesbyrå (also styled Solstrands Begravelsesbyrå) is a Norwegian funeral services provider based in Bergen. According to its official website, the firm has been family-owned and has operated from Herman Foss gate 11 in central Bergen since 1963, giving it more than sixty years of continuous service in the region. It describes itself as a traditional funeral home with deep local knowledge, available to bereaved families around the clock, every day of the year. The agency serves Bergen and the wider Øygarden municipality, including Sotra, through a network of local offices. In addition to its central Bergen location, it maintains branches at Straume (Bildøyvegen 11A, in the Sartorgården building), Laksevåg (Johan Berentsens vei 4, the Jørs building) and Fana (Laguneveien 11, Laguneparken). Each office can be reached by the same telephone number, 55 55 16 16, and the firm advertises a 24-hour on-call service. Its service range covers the practical and ceremonial aspects of a Norwegian funeral: planning and arranging burials and funeral services (begravelser og bisettelser), ceremony venues, memorial pages (minnesider), repatriation, and price lists. The website also offers an option to book a consultation and provides answers to frequently asked questions. The brand now appears within the Heder network, a Norwegian funeral services group, as indicated by its placement on heder.no. The Wikidata entry for Solstrand begravelsesbyrå simply identifies it as a Norwegian undertaker. The business remains active and continues to market itself as a local, family-oriented funeral home in the Bergen area.
