Cruises from Nuuk
Nuuk, a small town in Greenland, is located along the southwest coast of Greenland. Its unspoiled nature, of a unique beauty, its very ancient history and its old traditions make it an ideal place to get to know Greenlandic culture better. The name of the city, symbol of its cultural identity, means "head/promontory" and is linked to its physical conformation.
This name is not the original one, but it was assigned to the city only in 1979. The history of the city has very ancient origins, the first settlements date back to 2200 BC by Aboriginal populations. Later, the Vikings invaded the city and subjected it to their power for more than five centuries and then abandoned it around 1450. Despite its ancient history, the date of foundation of the city actually dates back to 1728 when missionary Hans Egede reached the territory on behalf of the crown of Denmark and Norway to convert the region to Lutheranism. The city has a rich cultural tradition mainly linked to the Aboriginal populations that inhabit the territory.
