Qaqortoq is South Greenland's educational center, with a business school, a high school and other institutions. The city was founded in 1774 by Anders Olsen on behalf of the Royal Greenland Trading Company (KGH). Our city tour starts among the old houses of the colonial quarter and then takes us to the fish and meat market, where we hear about the conditions faced by today's fishermen and hunters, Greenlandic culinary traditions, etc. We then proceed to the old church from 1832 – "Annaasisitta Oqaluffia" (The Church of Our Savior)
